Final Film Poster



This is the final version of my film poster. I have taken into consideration all of the audience feedback I had received from both my first draft and my second draft and have incorporated it into this final version.

I changed the tagline of the poster from "They took his wife. Will he get her back?" to "They took his wife. Can he get her back?". I did this because the first tagline sounded to subjective. 

The images have also been slightly edited/tweaked, as before the protagonist (right) appeared much smaller than the antagonist (left). I made them a similar size and also changed the intensity of the black and white on the image of the antagonist. Before, the antagonist looked too dark and didn't stand out enough.

Another change I made to the poster was that I removed the actors names as some of them weren't needed. I decided to keep the names of the actors who were actually featured on the film poster and anchored them to the images by placing them closer to the images. By doing this, it created more space for other features to go on the poster.

In the space that was created, I added an endorsement. Endorsements are used to further attract an audience. They praise the film and are usually from respected sources. In the endorsement, the stars used matched the overall theme of the poster.

Finally, I drastically changed/edited the billing block. After re-looking at other film posters, including the ones I researched and analysed, the billing blocks were extremely small to the point where they were hardly readable. So I changed the font and decreased the size of the billing block.
