Poster draft

In order to create my poster i will have to edit the images and fonts i wish to use so my poster can look as attractive and professional as possible.

For the first draft of my poster i wanted to reflect my film to a certain extent without giving away too much, this way the reader. For example like in the Dark knight poster the main character is facing away from the viewer. This is to create a sense of suspense as the viewer wonders what the character looks like. Like all of the posters i analyzed i used a tag line in my poster however in this draft i wasn't pleased with the positioning since due to it's similar size, font type and color the tag line sticks out just as much as as the film title does which was not what i wanted to achieve. I was also not too fond of the background on this draft, i first believed that a backdrop of trees would be a good idea however, it's too much for the viewer to take in due to the texture effects i added to it with photoshop. Also the positioning is wrong since the tree is blocked by the main character, and if the image of the main character was moved to the side of tree the poster would look unbalanced.

For the images of the Teddy bears i used photoshop to erase the background. However i decided not to use the full images of the teddy bears in my final design because it implies that the teddy bears have leading roles in the film in stead of being in the background.

I decided to change the font of the text in my poster due to it's style which is more associated with romanticaly linked films rather than dark comedys and i believed that it didn't really blend with the rest of the poster.
