Explicit Treasure Island

Share

I had to create two posters for my university course. This one is the explicit version (as in gives you all the information you need to know most of the narrative and not explicit as in boobs).

Thank you. I'm thinking of editing this poster though as I feel I could have done it better.

Out of the two posters posted this one's a definate favorite! The background isn't just a texture in this but actually serves a purpose, both acting bones and delivering a subtle subliminal marketing message on what to expect from the movie (?). Colors are clear and contrast nicely, though the black text in this doesn't stand out as sharply as the yellow one. How would it look in white? Or with an outlined wooden texture? Also applicable to the text at the top.

For the skull the contrast is almost too sharp between background and text, and still the coins almost seem to be floating above it. I feel the text should be the focus (the title I mean) but as it is the coins and the OG logotype seem to be the foremost layer, the skyll and text the second, the background text the third and the background (which btw - I think would look pretty awesome with an overlay of the skulls from the other poster - maybe faded so they're barely visible) last in line. How about hiding the coins in sockets, encapsulating them in glow/inner shade? And fading the text?

Overall it looks great though, the forms are nice as is the placement.I see this one has a subtle border too, but not sure it serves a purpose. Is it better with or would it be the same without it? How would it look if it was just a bit transparent so it didn't cut the outer text? Nice work!

Decky responds:
