Posters

"What would you do?" is an award winning senior film project at the Black Film Festival in '07. My client majored in film so I thought it would be cool idea to advertise the video like a movie poster. The client wanted to spread the message about verbal and phyiscal abuse by creating a video that touched on these topics. So as a designer I did not want to stray away from that.

I choose the color red as the theme color because it represents a tone of anger and violence. Displayed behind and overlapping the female image are facts about abuse, which serves as a more meaningful purpose then just a cool poster. At the bottom of the poster are poses of my big headed girlfriend and myself acting like Ike & Tina Turner. As like credits in movie posers the credits for this project were resevered for those who participated and worked on the production (pre & post production) of this video. My favorite part of this poster are the red strips/borders on each side of the image. I love to frame/contain my work in creative borders. (for the lames who haven't picked up on that yet)

This was a successful project and I'm glad I had the opportunity to work on it.
