Poster: Step-by-step Guide

                           Below is a step-by-step guide on how i made by Poster design -


To make my movie poster i used Photoshop to edit. As my poster
was to advertise the up and coming Minions movie i thought i
would use a Minimalistic style, so i made the poster a Minion.
Even though it may seem simple, this character well known from
the movies Despicable Me,  making it recognisable as soon as you see it. 



I used the colours yellow and blue as they are the colours
of a Minion. I then edited in the eye and the mouth. 

I then started testing out which text fonts i wanted to use and
if i wanted the title to be all in capital or lower-case letters. 

I decided on my font and i went for typing it all in lower-case
letters as it makes it look my child-friendly and less serious. 

When looking at my poster i thought the text looked quite flat so
i thought i'd play around with the 3D text option. I decided to keep
the 3D text as i thought it gave my poster a more profession look, instead
of everything looking flat and boring. 

                                        Here are two copies of my finished movie poster, i
                                        was comparing the two to decide whether i preferred
                                        the movie quote being at the top or at the bottom. I
                                        decided to go with placing it at the top as i thought it
                                       looked better featured under the text "They're back to
                                       take over the world".
