This article will teach you how to create a cool project with a perfect background and find examples of eye-catching backgrounds for different occasions.
How to choose the appropriate background?
Colorful shades and beautiful scenery are not the only requirements for the perfect background. It should respond to the occasion and deliver the right message to the audience.
First of all, choose the topic of your project. You should decide whether to make a greeting video, advertising clip, or, maybe, an invitation. Every case requires different kinds of text and visual components. After determining the message you want to deliver, you should decide whether it is formal or informal. That will help you to choose a background for your future project. For instance, you'd better select interior or urban environments for a formal letter. At the same time, a colorful illustration background will work best for informal and exciting projects like birthday cards.
