This shows the progress of our thinking around the poster. We are following the idea of a split poster that we saw was common for war-based films in our research. The top half is emotion and character-based. We have extracted the chosen photo of the brothers and put this on top of a photo taken while filming to create a sense of location and then added the smoke effect to add danger, an impression of battle and also to smooth out the whole image and make it merge better.
The bottom section gives more narrative detail. We have chosen photos taken while filming of the three characters and desaturated the colour to add to the emotional tone. We have tried to capture a different emotion for each character. We are now working on blurring these images together so there are less harsh lines.
At the moment we are debating whether our kind of poster would include actor names or not. We are also looking for the right font and colour for our title. The green is not the right font, but the colour works well in terms of standing out. The black and white is effective and we prefer it, but it might not have enough impact. We will probably be influenced in this decision by the magazine cover - the title has to work well on this too, so that will help us choose our font and colour.
