Poster Draft


So this is a preliminary draft of our promotional poster for "The Perfect Man". interestingly enough, I was just using MS Paint to through a digital draft together, but when I included the images of the back of Todd's head and the box of Valentine's truffles, I really liked the contrast between the 2D and 3D elements. It would make sense because it provides emphasis to the main character and draws your eye to the heart; one could be really abstract and even say that his world is happy but lifeless before he meets Emma.

My favorite aspect of this design is its subtle cue: the perfect woman made by the box and the ribbon and the bon-bons. The movie is from Todd's perspective--and you are invited to identify with him through the use of the over-the-shoulder shot--but ultimately, it is also a celebration of Emma as his perfect match, the best one after a line of ladies. :)

Any feedback?
