Final piece
I chose this as my final piece asI feel it still captures the movieand appeals to a modernaudience. I thought about thecolour a lot and the connotationof the colour red. I kept thepicture in black and white tomake it dramatic and to keep inwith the film noir roots. I alsothought about the placement ofthe image to which bit woulddraw the most attention. Iwanted the type face to be likehandwriting to give a personalfactor and to connote a ‘lovenote’ feel. The picture is a moremodern piece with modernthemes more acceptable in thisday and age opposed to the1950’s. Adding to this it wouldhave been rare to see aphotograph as a movie poster.
