What information do I need?
Where should the title be?
Where should the image be?
Ratings and barcodes?
Characters, quotes, slogans?
What is the hierarchy? (use size and contrast to show importance)
What is the focal point?
Each image uses the same image of a lady, title, logo, slogan, author and barcode. They have experimented with scale, photoshop effects, background imagery and different layouts to create three completely different cover ideas. Some have used different techniques such as repetition, glows and transparency to create a different feeling with varied success. Which composition do you think is most successful? Why?
Use at least 4Â images to make 3 different layout compositions of a film poster. (If you want you can source your own imagery, however think about time). Each composition must use the same four images, so choose carefully.
Remember to add effects and use a wide range of photoshop skills!
