The film poster had to be A4 or bigger, and to redesign an existing film poster or create a new one from either existing films or a new idea. The instructions given are below.
Before I started on my own film poster, I looked at other alternative film posters that people had created to get an idea of the type of thing I could create. There was plenty of interesting and inspiring pieces of work. The issue I had was the lack of knowledge with the software, as some of the work look complex and highly professional. Although I had learn a lot over the weeks with the designing of the CD cover and logo, the film poster was a new challenge.
I began by drawing out some drafts of what I could do for my film poster. I started with the film Scott Pilgrim Vs the World. Below are the plans I came up with. I wasn't initially thrilled with what I had come up with so decided to change the film I was focusing on, hoping this would give me new ideas.
My second attempt at drafting the film poster went a lot better, I had picked the film Drive, staring Ryan Gosling. Though not a favourite among many, the film has several iconic scenes and themes that meant it lent itself well the different designs. The drawings of the film poster designs can be seen below. I will talk about each design separately in individual posts.
