For a school application they want me to design a typographical poster with a quote on it. I'm planing on taking part of a dialogue from a book I enjoy, with the total length of about 100 letters.
The problem is that I don't know graphic design. I'm not retarded when it comes to /ic/-shit, but pretty lost when it comes to creating fonts and visually constructing posters.
Are there any good tutorials on what's important to think about when creating a poster, or similar?
What's the important aspects of fonts. General do's and don'ts.
And some guide lines on how you effectively do sketches for posters.
Thanks in advance.

read basic rules of typography and you should not get lost too bad. also, use fine, well made fonts. no need to read a 100 page book about typography, but you need to understand what makes a good looking read.
