Diary Post 9

Today I worked further on the poster for my film, adding reviews and credits to make it look more professional and legitimate. I changed the background from pink to blue, as although the previous colour was feminine and would appeal more effectively to my target audience of teenage-young adult females, it looks fresher and has positive and calming connotations. I noticed during my research that star ratings are often used on posters to show commendations the film had been given. It also adds detail to the otherwise minimalistic poster. I kept to the limited colour palette even with my credits, although these are conventionally black anyway. I used the ruler tool on photoshop to make sure everything was lined up and in proportion, for example, the photo taking up exactly half of the poster.
