Instagram post

Whilst looking for inspiration on Instagram I came across some interesting layouts and thought it would be a unique way to promote our exhibition.  Instagram Puzzles, these are multiple posts that come together to create a large Image when looking at the overall view of the Instagram account.  

Above is a screenshot I took of “Chic.geeks” Instagram page,  a small business selling cases for Mac Books. This was one of the images that inspired my Instagram puzzle post.

I used three posts merged into one to create a large image promoting our exhibition.  Like a puzzle, the single posts came together to form one large image below:-

I used the agreed logo and name of the exhibition, Kaleidoscope.  However I decided to use a black background rather than white as used for the final poster/Instagram post. After researching other exhibition posters/posts I understood what should be included when promoting an event:-

• Name of the exhibition (Kaleidoscope)
• Logo of the Exhibition
• Name of the Festival (Medway Photo Festival 2019) along with their Logo
• Location
• Date and Times
• A small description about the exhibition. (This was created by another member of the class and was featured on all of the promotional posts)
• Our University logo
• The Instagram account we were using for the exhibition.

Sometimes communication with others in my group was difficult as responses were  very slow, I found this quite frustrating.  Because of this for some of the work I just used the information I had to hand plus the logo.

I eventually decided upon the above single post, as this was easier to put on Instagram  and get the message across in such a short amount of time. The advertisement was also delayed as we were not given the opening time until less that a week before the Exhibition opened.

we made the decision to posted this on the UCAphoto page because it already had an audience.
