Week one- Day three

Today I began working on my slides for the presentation in week 3. This was a very interesting step as I was able to put some of my ideas onto a document and look at the gaps that I needed to research on. After starting the introduction side, I realised that the colours look aesthetically pleasing, however I wanted to change the font as I felt it was a down fall. This brought up a little problem as I know I can’t just change the font for the looks of things and because I personally don’t like the them. After coming to this road block I started some research and was looking up fonts that people with mental illnesses and alcoholism (changed from binge drinking) are more susseptable to, however there is little research about fonts and how they are interpreted.  This lead me to believe that people of mental illnesses and alcoholism do not mind what font they read. The only bit of information I have gathered is that I should not use more than three fonts on a document otherwise people may not want to read the information. After further research I have decided to change the font based  off the emotion I want the reader to be feeling. I have gone for the font called Georgia italic which makes the reader feel “comfort” and as a health promotion agency I would want clients to feel comfortable. After sorting the opening slide, I moved on to the second which has got me thinking about who I want my target audience to be and where I want my initiative to be displayed etc.
