Welcome Sign - Version 4

This is now the final version of the Welcome Sign. Minor changes were made, particularly with the font choice to fit in with the overall branding, some drop shadows, an added web address for the exhibition's website, and the way the 3D logo and anaglyphic effect was applied. To get the colours of the anaglyphic effect to properly match the red and cyan colours of 3D glasses, I had to change Illustrator's colour settings from CMYK to RGB, and got nice, brighter colours as a result of editing this setting:


Overall, I'm very happy with the way this has turned out. I was given good feedback for this from other members of the graphics teams, with at least one saying that it really felt like the 3D effect was there. Maybe the effect actually works, maybe it doesn't, I have no way of knowing since I haven't been able to test the effect. I tried following a web tutorial on how to apply the effect properly, but some problems I came across with said tutorial stopped me in my tracks, so I had to improvise.

It was also suggested to me that I make a sign that says "Thank you for visiting" to those who are leaving the exhibition. For this, I essentially flipped all of the elements of the poster around while also making some small changes to the text:
