Simple drawings are then shared helping decisions about the final banner layout. Lettering and enlarged drawings can then be
cut out using paper so that we can see what the banner will look like at its full size.
The positioning of particular words in the text can provide added impact.
It is only at this point that we begin to work with material.
Banner making is not solitary - communication plays a vital part through the process
of depicting a text as a picture.
