It’s 2012 – Take It Up A Notch!

Now that the exhibition has come to a close and the posters are back in the studio, I’ve spent a bit of time looking at them in hindsight and figuring out what to do next and how to step it up a notch.

The ideas and inspiration are flowing, I made the most of the Christmas holidays to get actors Peter McGann, Stephen Colfer and John Doran in to the studio when they came home over the festivities, shooting each of them for new separate poster ideas.

One is about 90% complete already, the second is at about 50% and the third has yet to be started as I’m still building the blueprint in my head. I think the idea is great and the shots are perfect for the tone, I just need to figure out the background and then shoot all the elements of it.

Now that the overall idea & style of the fake movie posters has been established and seen by people, I’m hoping to broaden the ideas and do some more conceptual style posters too, take in more ambitious genres and really build on my photoshop/design skills in 2012. I’ve also had a lot of people offering themselves up for poster shoots which is awesome.
