Poster Developments - final



This is the final poster that I have created. I had to re-do the last on because the images were not mine and I felt that there were a few elements that needed changing. I have used a very similar method, using the 'spotlight' background with leaves around the outside. I thought this reflected the woodland shots from out short film and primarily the idea of death and decay. The falling leaf in the bottom left corner of the poster also connotes falling or loss.

  I then added the text which I kept it simple so more attention is drawn towards the imagery. The font is '((((o)))) Brush' and looks as if someone has written the words in chalk, giving a raw, textured effect. I used this font for the rating names and also for the sub-heading which I added on later.

  I used a great font for the credits called 'Universal Accreditation' which makes the text look really realistic and effective on this poster. I placed both the credits and ratings at the top of the page and also centred to use the limited space to it's advantage. 
  Finally, I made the centre text black as I thought it made it much more eye-catching than it was in white. I decided to add more leaves to fill out the space a little more and added shading to them, adding a dramatic feel to the poster as a whole.
