Boards for Final crit


Type on cover


Using the new colour I experimented even further with type.

Colour...

I used the idea of a inside of a tree to show the life span of a tree. A sort of play on words.
An alright idea but I don't think it works for the film.

Using the more ambient Idea of just colour behind I changed the blue to a greeny grey. I think this colour works better than the blue as it works well with the illustration.


Title Type

As a requirement of the brief you need to incorporate the title of the film into the cover. These are a few variations of type layout with the cover so far.

Beach / Blue

Using colour to bring the 'scene' alive I used mostly blue and grey. The composition stil doesn't feel right though.
I then added some texture and then I didn't think the sea looked good so I got rid of it leaving a just the colour blue behind the character which works quite well but needs more work.

More Cover Ideas

Another scene in the movie which could be used as a concept is the beach scene, another dreamy sort of scene where poeple past an present are all milling about. Another is the desert scene, where one of the characters is wondering around.

I think the beach one would be more appropriate for the cover as the desert cover may confuse people.

Cover ideas

Here I tried 2 different concepts for the cover. Taking imagery from the film seen HERE.
I don't think either of them work that well due to composition or colour. The orange/red of the sun is too bold and colourful for the general feel of the film.
