Movie Poster - Experimental


PLAN


ORIGINAL IMAGES

 

BLURRING THE IMAGES
Instead of having two separate block images i took inspiration from other romance movie posters such as The Last Song and The Best of Me and blurred the images together.




The movie revolves around the main characters, Rosie and Alex writing letters to each other so i wanted to incorporate this element into the poster somewhere. I decided to use the torn paper effect as the background for my title.



  SELECTING THE FONT
From looking at other romcom movie posters i found that pink was a commonly used colour. I wanted something quite bold so i chose a bright fuchsia which i think works really well in connoting the fun, romantic tone of the movie.  


Because of the busy background image the strap line was getting lost and was fairly difficult to read. To solve this i had to create some sort of background for the text. I used the ellipsis tool to draw a simple white oblong shape which i then feathered around the edges and lowered the opacity to 60%. The text is now clear to read without the background being too much of a noticeable distraction.
