I love your posters! I think they are stunning. I have not seen the movie, however I have heard of them. I do agree with Carolyn about the lighthouse. I think it's not an issue that it looks floating for me however, more so that The Departed and Gangs of New York illustrations are centered regardless the placement of your title text, and Shutter Island is not. I am not sure if you tried it, but perhaps making the quote "Who is 67" smaller with more lines forming the image (like the illustration in The Departed) may give it more definition. It does stand out as different, but I am not sure why; and hey, maybe you meant to do it! Other than that, very fine job.

Your posters are also fantastic. I struggle with illustrations, so ultimately, I don't have anything I could point out, because I do feel like your talents are much further than what I can conjure. I have the same issue and can't pull up anything other than the Pee Wee's Big Adventure poster. Going from what I can see as it sits on the blog, the backgrounds seem to be three different shades. Since they are excellently tied together in the background with Tim Burton's name, for me visually I would prefer the shade of the background to be consistent. I do like the placement of your information and the title text.

I like how you accomplished the skyline and the look of explosion on your posters. The second poster (first one, second column) I think I like the best because the triangles are broken - so I feel that the explosion is going out of control (as explosions do). I also like that the explosion is coming out of the city, and not so "clean" like illustrated in the first poster. I hope this helps!

Okay, didn't get the feedback I was hoping for last week. I am struggling with illustration so I would like to share my updated posters so far... My director is Vincent Minneli, and I chose to show his favorite color that is used in almost every single one of his movies (red, specifically known as "Minneli Red"). The three movies I am using are big production, musical numbers. While I originally used black lines to shape the images, I took them out hoping the grey would create a softer - less dramatic look. I also took into consideration some of the suggestions/comments made this page week in group. I am still working on refining the illustrations but any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Questions: Do I have too much white space?
Does the placement of The Band Wagon title need reworking?
Thanks all!
