Poster Progress One

As I don't have the images for my poster yet, I began with the writing. This writing includes the main actresses at the top and the bottom credits. As for now, the background will stay back, mainly just so that the writing is visible. I used the 'SOLO' film poster layout as a basis for my own film poster. This is why my actresses names are situated where they are. I used the text tool and selected 'Niagara Solid'.

I then made my credits. I used various different posters credits to find out what I needed to include, for example, producer, director, writer etc. Once again I used the text tool on the 'Niagara Solid' font to create this. I then used the grid to centre it on the page. Underneath I included the logos for my production/distribution companies. I also had to use the magic eraser tool to erase the backgrounds from these logos. I also used the text tool in a different font to add the release 'coming soon'. I then incorporated the logo for the IMAX and 3D. I then groups these all together and used the grid once again to centre them. I also included the website here as this is a common convention of a movie poster.

I then added the title of my film. I used a font that I liked from 1001fonts and altered the size using ctrl + T + shift. This is not yet my decided font, I will not choose my final font for the title until my images in in so that I know how the overall product will look.

This is my poster so far.

A2 Target Grade - A

To achieve my target my research, planning and evaluation must be detailed, effectively communicated and presented digitally, using a wide variety of formats. I need detailed
research into similar products and target audience and to show the process of planning by including excellent work on shotlists, drafts, storyboards, scripts, locations and props. I need to show full evidence of the research and planning informing the construction process. My evaluation must reflect my excellent understanding of forms and conventions, an understanding of the use of new media throughout the stages of production, the way my ancillary and primary tasks combine effectively. There will be an excellent understanding of the significance of audience feedback. My production work, across the formats, will demonstrates excellent creativity and imagination as I seek to make them as convincing as possible and it will also reflect my mastery in technical skills such as controlled use of the camera, attention to framing, variety of shot sizes, close attention to mise-en-scène, appropriate transitions and use of sound.
