How to flatten your image and save it as a JPEG
Things to consider:
We are using the format of an Album cover so our viewer is already aware that the image has something to do with music and the music industry.
What we are looking at:
- Color
- Composition (placement of visual elements in 2d space...positive and negative space, rule of thirds)
- Image - subject matter
- Image - style
- Font - literal reading
- Font - style
Each of these elements becomes a "signifier" to the viewer. Which means from these visual elements we will try to make sense of the image. In this case what genre of music might this CD contain?

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.
