Construction of Poster

This photo shows me taking the still photograph i am using for my poster.

This is the image i took and i will use.

This is the first draft of my poster. As you can see i have the basic outline and structure of the poster but i have lots of work to do before it looks professional. For example, adding a credit block, making the picture blend into the black background, making the splatters look more effective and maybe changing the font of the title.

This is how my poster has changed since. I have done some font research for the credit block and changed the leading, height and font accordingly, to make it look more in line with professional products. I have kept to a theme of red, white and black however the fonts are now smarter and therefore in my opinion, more chilling. I changed the release date making it more specific and changed the font, so it fitted more with the font used for the title. I also added a credit block and edited the leading and height of the font for this. It took a lot of work because there were two different heights used, so i was constantly changing it. I still need to add my institutional logos along the bottom. I then added my 'slogan' along the top and i need to re-add the picture (that i took out temporarily) and make it fit in with the rest of the poster.

Here is my final copy. As you can see i have developed it from the last picture by adding the picture and make it stand out i darkened it then added a lot of brush effects so that it worked its way into the black background. I also added the institutional logos, which was a simple job as all i had to do was transfer them onto the photoshop document, resize them and put them in place. I also changed the font of the slogan, simply because i feel it stands out more and looks better in white with the picture.
