Ancillary Task 2 - Poster

After receiving feedback on my previous draft of the poster, I have updated it to a better version. The mian changes are an updated credit block and a smaller tagline. Below is this new version, and below that is the original post.


























This is my second Ancillary Task. On 4th April, I spent a few hours editing the picture on Photoshop and starting to add in the correct text - I finished the credit block this morning. I think that the poster looks very professional and eye catching. I kept the font as the same style as the trailer, to keep synergy across all the media platforms. I also added a tag-line to generate more interest in the film - it gives more of a clue to what the film will be about, but also helps create many enigmas.

The biggest issue we had was the fact that we had forgotten to move a white bucket out of the way, when taking the pictures. This meant that there was a big white bucket taking up almost half of the shot and it distracted from the two actors in the doorway. This meant that, not only did I have to add the fade effect on the left, I also had to make it so much more predominant than I initially intended. However, I do like the way that the poster has turned out - I feel that the more predominant fade adds a more ominous feeling to the poster.
