Poster Advice

Thanks to Tracy for starting us off with poster posting! Tracy I had another thought about your posters--what about moving the computer eye to the bottom right? That way you have a different position for the focus of each poster, as opposed to two of them being the same and one of them being different.

What do you guys think of my spooky house? I got the image off of stock exchange--it was already spooky but I made some enhancements. Let me know if you think it looks spookier in full black and white.

Thanks Stephanie! I was actually thinkning the same thing, but I was going to move the "photograph" to the bottom corner instead of the "computer." Do you think that would work? Was there a reason you chose the computer over the other?

I LOVE your house, great find! Are you going to divide it over the three posters? I think I like the B&W one best, however I like that the window in the photo above is red (and the only red in the photo). Maybe you can make it B&W except for the one window of color, and maybe you could change the color based on your movie color - I know you had been trying to incorporate the colors because it is such a large part of the movie. I don't know. Just an idea. Looking good :) Can't wait to see more!

Hi, Tracy. Thanks for your advice--I like your idea of putting the red window in the B/W version--unfortunately that window will only appear in one of the posters if I divide the image across all three posters, which I intend to try. I am still struggling a bit because working with photos is more difficult than working with illustrations in my opinion.

Regarding the moving the eye: I said to move the eye because if you move the man, then his eyes would be looking off the poster as opposed to at the viewer since right now he is more at eye level. But maybe it will be fine--why don't you post the revision so we can take a look. :)
