Baz Lurhmann Progress

Here is where I have gotten with my posters.
  • Pumped up the brightness to reflect the movie color schemes better (saturated blue, gold & red)
  • Moved the gold type to the movie titles (The Creative Market gods blessed me with a free psd gold styles set in last week's freebies if anyone wants it -- it's pretty awesome)
  • Worked with the water motifs. *Fish tank - R&J moving toward eachother (?) gave the "+" air bubbles to try to nod to fish tank without adding new elements.  *More organic lake. *made the confetti same color to reflect "pool" of confetti rain covering the movie title...if that makes sense. 
  • Logic was to try to make all type interact with the water in some way since that is how Luhrmann used it with his characters to express important themes/emotions.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! 

Thanks!!

Erin, these look great! Just two questions. Does Moulin Rouge! need the exclamation mark? The other titles don't use punctuation, so maybe leave that out unless it has to be part of the title. The only other thing I've noticed is the "the" in The Great Gatsby seems far away from the "Great Gatsby" text. My only suggestion is to consider moving it closer since the text on the other posters are closer in line with one another.
