AUTUMN POSTER FINALISED

After trying to get the portrait collage of pictures to work for my poster, I decided to keep my design plain and simple. I used green and gold colours for the text as I felt they represented the idea of autumn and the woods etc.

The tag line that I created: 'escape from reality' let's the audience in on the rough plot of the film and the necklace also gives another clue.

To finish, I need to continue with the ratings, making sure they are easy to see and are labelled 'the sun' or 'the daily mail' etc 

Short Film Poster - Draft

Above is a draft of my final design of our short film poster. The background is a photograph i took while on set recording the first part of the sequence set in the woods and i think it reflects the title well as the tress look lifeless. The black and white effect i added, in photoshop, as i wanted the photograph to look old and there was too much colour in the original for the titling to stand out. I also added a grain effect to the photograph to give it an aged look along with turning up the contrast to make the black and white effect work.

I plan to add film festival icons that are relevant to short films at the bottom of the poster in a band. I want to add several reviews at top also, crediting the film and promoting it through good publicity.
