Film Poster Update

After conducting my audience research, I discovered that most people actually prefered the original design over the second version which I initially believed to be better, however seeing as people saw the first design as the better design, I have decided to keep that design as the official poster for my film. They also were fine with the design for the magazine cover with no initial problems so I shall be keeping that as well (Note: For some reason blogger makes the image brighter than it is).

Film Poster Next Draft

I have designed a new poster for my ancillary text, this time I have adapted a new colour scheme, rather than be all green it is now green & black, this is a colour scheme that I am happy to stick with as it is reminsiant of science fiction films such as The Matrix. Instead of having the main character facing away from the poster, he is now directly facing the audience and I have chosen a "fading" design (See previous post) I personally think this design is far better than the previous one as it looks more professional and gives a better tone of the film. I have also removed a lot of the text featured in the previous draft as it made the poster feel far too cluttered. However I still feel as though there could be minor improvements made to it, as I feel it is a little too empty. Also I haven't decided on specific things, such as the placement of the supporting characters, so I have two different designs on the poster and still haven't decided which one to use.

Audience Feedback Questions

I shall be getting my audience feedback soon, hopefully I shall have it by next weekend (29th March) and I shall be doing my feedback in video format to get the viewer's instant reactions and first thoughts. After watching the trailer, I shall ask them questions about it, these are those questions.

1. What was going on in that trailer?

2. What genre would you describe it as?

3. Were you confused by anything?

4. Did you like it?

5. What did you think of the characters?

6. How would you improve it?

7. Was there anything in particular that stood out to you, good or bad?

8. Do you think it gave too much away?

9. Who do you think would like this?

10. Would you watch the film?
