Poster - Photoshop Draft 1


This is the first draft of my final poster, made through Photoshop and using an image taken directly from my film.

Things that are incomplete about this poster:

  • I have yet to take the final image for the poster, and I would imagine that it will look significantly different from this one - though Callum will have a similar pose except from a wider angle, I intend to take the image at night, and also in an entirely different location.
  • I have yet to create a slate with the entire cast and crew on it - something which I feel will give the poster a generally more professional look.
  • I have yet to add a rating to this poster. 
Positive aspects of this poster:
  • Though incomplete, this already has something of a realistic, documentary style, but also feels iconic due to the unconventional colour choice on the title. 
  • The font and shape of most of the titles seem to work quite well - I am pleased with the effect of putting surnames here in bold.
Areas to improve:
  • I am not quite satisfied with the 5 stars I have added - the colour is slightly off for me but this is something I can easily remedy. However, the shape of the stars themselves - the way in which the lines forming the star points are slightly curved gives them a slightly cartoony look which is not often seen in 5 star ratings for films.
  • The placement of the graphics is something I will modify, as they do not all look completely centered.
