Choosing My Final Poster

After making my original poster, I decided to slightly alter the image. my intentions were to make it look as if the image had been painted to recreate the effect of the "Dam Busters" poster that I analyzed as well as many other film posters at the time.

I wasn't really sure about the effect so i decided to do a survey asking people which one they preferred. the end result was the one n the right. for this reason this is my final poster

Making my Magazine

When making my poster I was inspired by the layout of the independent magazine "Little White Lies" which I have done an analysis of. I liked the quite simplistic design of the magazine, and the neutral colours used in the colour scheme, as well as the way they made the images striking in order to stand out more.

So when creating my magazine review, the first thing I did was select the image that i wanted to use and cropped it, and then changed it to the scale I wanted. I purposely chose to crop it as a square.

After arranging the picture properly on the page, I then began to add text boxes; adding in the title of the film, who directed it, who was starring in it and the release date.

Update on Filming

On Tuesday we set the day aside to get all filming done, unfortunately there was a pheasant shoot through the woods, meaning we had to cut the day short. However we did manage to get half of the filming we intended to get done that day.
