things to consider:
First you want to figure out a genre for your movie. Is it a Romantic comedy, Sci-fi, Fantasy, Horror, Comedy, Drama, Action, ect Then look at and collect movie posters of that genre. Consider things like colors used, font type, text placement, use of actors/actresses images, are they full body or close up, what is their gesture.


whats due:
3 images 11x17 inches at 180 dpi. Put them up on your Flickr page and have it ready as a JPEG file saved at 9 quality as a Standard setting. I will collect the JPEGs in class. You also need to print your favorite poster and have it ready for the day of the critique.
