poster


i have finally finished the poster for my short film. designing this was challenging for a few reasons. firstly it was difficult to find short film posters, though i did manage to find a couple. the first one i found leant to me the idea that since short films often attempt to portray a level if postmodernism as is not often scene in mainstream cinemas i would design a postmodern poster for my film. the characters on the poster were made as stick figures with exaggerated aspects to them. for instance the villain has the gloves that they wear in the film, the protagonist has his green clothes and the mother has the bread knife. all chosen because of the main characters mind. he is portrayed as being "not all there" as portrayed by his absurdist flashbacks. its meant to be an insight into the character and his perception of those around him.

final product


it was no small task but the magazine article is finally finished. after reading through magazines like EMPIRE and FILM i designed a template for what the article should looks like and what should be covered in the writing itself. i believe i have more than aptly portrayed what a film article looks like.
