Above is my final poster, and I am extremely pleased with the final outcome. The most noticeable addition to my final poster is the billing box which is a code and convention of every film poster. The main issue I faced with the billing box was selecting where I should place it, and the colour I should use to ensure that it is consistent with the rest of the poster in terms of theme, layout and complementing the poster image. The font used for the billing box is ‘SteelTongs’, which I downloaded of www.dafont.com to ensure that my poster meets the codes and conventions of a film poster. Underneath the billing box I included the website for the film, and I put coming soon as the release date for the film has not been set yet. Overall, I think the poster is successful and aesthetically, and has achieved the look of being sophisticated yet simple, and is not too cluttered or complicated. Personally, I think the poster will help me to target the films audience effectively.

As the completion of our teaser is almost complete, there are only a few things left to do, which are;
- Voiceover
- Re-import ‘No Typical Love Story’ closing title from motion as it I didn’t export it under the correct settings the first time, resulting in the closing title displaying pixels and not looking smooth.
- Cut scenes in length in order to decrease the length of the teaser as it is close to the 1 minute 30 second limit.
- Add slow motion to selected scenes
- Edit audio and voice decibel levels in order to make dialogue clear in the teaser.
For our poster image I made a photoshoot plan in order to know what types of photos would suit our poster. Below is an animoto clip of the photos taken at the photoshoot.

First Draft - Poster:
The first draft of my poster has progressed steadily, but I have been struggling with how I should layout of the poster, and selection of colours since the image is black and white, resulting in designing the poster even more challenging. The poster looks incomplete at the moment as there is a big white space in the top left quarter of the poster, which I have been trying to figure out how I should fill out that negative space. Overall, I am pleased with the progress as I feel that I have a foundation to work on now, and experiment with ideas, layout etc.
