Instead of typing out the title and other information of text on on our film poster, we decided to write it all up on the board, so that is was similar to the Dogme 95 rule. Dogme is amovement, set up by the Danish directors Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg, whose goal is to instill a sense of simplicity into filmmaking. This was done by using hand-held cameras, an easy location, no music, no titles made on the computer, no lighting and no fancy costumes.
Here you can see the different stages of making our poster:
1) We first did a rough version of what the poster would look like
2) We then shot a photo of Ryan standing in front of the whiteboard, with draft words around him
3) Using photo shop, we cut around Ryan's body so that he could be put onto another/different background
4) This is a second version of our poster. It was made using Photoshop, and apply texts onto the picture.
5) Instead, we decided to write everything onto the whiteboard.
6) This meant that we could then place the cut out Ryan onto the new background, and our poster would be complete.
