FINDERS KEEPERS FINAL POSTER







FINDERS KEEPERS FILM MAGAZINE REVIEW

 The film magazine review layout  has been completed by sammah and the journalism is being done by both of us

Poster work final day

My mentor didn't like my other idea because it destroyed the beauty of the image. Therefore she told us to try with different background colour. In this image I have tried to add the effect of shadow in my poster in order to remove the blurriness of the white background 
However none of the colours worked so I ended up using the same background of the image.

After removing the small texts, I thought writing reviews could help cover the empty at the background.

 After adding the reviews I played around with all the texts size, font type and how much brightness there should be etc.






This is how my final poster will look.

second day poster work

After removing the designs from the tee-shirt. I have tried to use white colour for all the texts but unfortunately white doesn't suit with all the texts. It could fit into for the main font (title) and for the tagline.

For the tagline I have dried sky blue in order to give more different look and make it stand out because as she's not a famous person , audience will mainly look at the font and the tagline. 

I tried to use light dark pink to see how it looks. With using this colour is that it makes it easy for me to read separately than font and the font is more visible. But this colour doesn't really match with the genre of the film since the film is combination of drama and comedy genre.

 At the end after trying out all the bright colours. The only colour that made it look more attractive and creative is yellow colour. The reason I have used yellow is because it's often considered the brightest and most energizing of the warm colour. It's associated with happiness and sunshine. Plus Yellow highlights danger in q quite unique way rather than black and red.
Yellow in my film poster I believe has given a new different fresh look. This is because yellow connotes danger but happiness at the same time. Thus it suits well to the genre of our film with comedy and drama. Comedy: its a bright sensation uplifting colour. Drama- its a colour which makes you think why is this girl upset /why she's not smiling since yellow brings shines into someone face. It therefore attracks the audience because firstly it indicates danger in happy and sarcastic way . As well as it this bright yellow colour welcomes the audience into the character of precious. As f the yellow could suggests that precious life isn't balanced out ; the font directly links to her facial expression.

 When I first asked my peers how is my poster looking. They mainly said "it looks fine' but they mainly  stated that the background is really empty and there should be something in the background. It will make the poster look less empty.  So in order to see how can I improve it, I tried to use the image of the envelope which didn't work. Then I tried writing small texts "finders keepers" in the background to see how it looks. After writing out all the texts , I joined up all the texts together.  When I finished it my peers really liked my poster and most argued that it's a really unique and distinctive poster.
