Poster Designs

After deconstructing some poster ideas I used the social network 'Facebook' in order to get feedback from a variety of different social representations of my target market. To do so I put my photo ideas on facebook and asked people to comment on the ones they liked.
  • Daniel Rimes: the picture here is kl because it creates layers within the imagery giving it texture! The name of the film however is a little small in font
  • Erin Power: I find this to be slightly pretentious and uninteresting. I agree with Daniel about the layering though.
  • Michelle Rimes: I dislike this poster.
    I like the idea of the silhouette but it has an unnessasary number of faces on it which I feel detracts from the artistic feel of the poster.
    The colour scheme works well, it's bold and stands out.
    Whilst the text may be... slightly small the contrast between
    the black and White makes up for it's size making it stand out on the page!
  • Zachary Oscar Bergman i think its gd lol
  • Daniel Rimes this is not so interesting as home of the brave as it just apears messy with font on the top bottom and in the middle! picture is interesting and sets a scene but personally isn't interesting to me!
  • Erin Power There's too much text, too much to take in. You need to be able to understand the information in a shot, not after a long hard read.
  • Michelle Rimes
    The shot used for this is brilliant, it has relevance to the title and tells a story of it's own.
    Whilst there is quite alot of text on the page I think it is placed well, the important information is a good size and stands out enough where ...as the less important information is less obvious on the page and blends in rather than standing out.
  • Damian O'Sullivan cut down the quotes and ur golden

  • Daniel Rimes once again i enjoy the layering of this cover! and the splitting of the image into two pictures! the white text however is appropriate in places but at the middle left aligned text does clash with the background!
  • Erin Power I've always thought there's too much text on this, just isn't attention grabbing. I like the close up of the face and the scene below it, very interesting.
  • Michelle Rimes
    I don't think there is too much text on this poster but I think that it is badly placed. The important information doesn't stand o...ut anymore from the the less important information.Colour scheme used is bold and stands out well though. Also because of the colours and where the font is placed it's very difficult to read!
    I like the two images used in this. They both have relevance and are intresting enough to grab your attention.
After which I used the same technique to start making mock up posters with found images off google search engine, then got people to vote on which one they liked better.



Then did the same for: Font, Production title, Tag line and Certification.





  • Erin Power ‎12a. 15 if it's particularly graphic.
  • Damian O'Sullivan ‎12 a. 15 if theres frequent swearing or graphic scenes
  • Michelle Rimes ‎15 if scenes including alcohol and dysfunctional familys are actually shown.
    12a if they are mostly just reffered to.
  • Daniel Rimes ‎12a!

Erin Power Fish Tank Titles.
But.. if I may suggest... 'Fish Tank Productions'?

Michelle Rimes Fish tank titles.
(fish tank productions also works)
Daniel Rimes life line!



After everything I then decided to design a train based poster using the 'Fish Tank Title' production company and a Baskerville old face font. As well as the tag line: 'Where would you go to leave everything behind you?' and to use an age certificate of 12A for my poster designs.
