Me, Adam, Hollie and Joe all decided that we would like to take over the film society, seeing as there wasn't anyone currently running it.
It was decided that I would design the logo, which I was pleased about, I like doing nice type, and I want to expand my typography skills anyway. It needed to be quite simple and bold, so that it would be noticeable at both a small and large scale. I went with a simple black and white colour scheme, so that we could easily change it to fit the colour scheme of any poster.
Each week we will design a different poster for each film, and also put out a call for submissions, as we think this is a nice way to get other people involved, and promote the society. Our first showing was The Grand Budapest Hotel, which has a very recognisable aesthetic, so I used the colour scheme from the film and a recognisable scene.
I have moments where I love the text on the grand budapest poster and moments where I hate it. I think I could have tried using an actual font rather than hand drawing it, but I always prefer to draw it myself.
The next showing after that was Clueless, which was really popular and plenty of people turned up to it. I wanted the poster to be attention grabbing, so I used a famous quote from the film, that anyone that likes and knows the film well would recognise.
