CONSTUCTION: FILM POSTER OLD AND NEW

 After receiving feedback on my film poster, I decided to make a few changes to it based on what people thought about it. From this feedback, I changed the alignment of the text on the sides to make both in line with each other and straight rather than at an angle.
Secondly, from the feedback, I agreed that my title was too small so I decided to make it larger so it would stand out more and mirror the same word depicted in shadow below it.
Finally, in the billing block I got rid of the inverted commas around people's name so that it would look more professional.
I received a lot of positive feedback: The composition of my graphic design was very much admired for its dynamic qualities with the center of visual attention being the protagonist who is being challenged to take risks. The focus group admired the colour scheme which they felt connoted the riskiness of the narrative with its startling and enervating electronic and neon hues which are very disconcerting. It was felt that the colours suggested the dangers of the city at night, with the car headlights focused on the protagonist. In particular, the way that they tagline was created in shadows was felt to be very ominous and in keeping with the spirit of the film. It was still felt that the pull quotes from IMDB and Daily News were too big in size.
