Objectives • Students should be able to: • Capture appropriate images for mock movie poster • Create mock movie poster including all appropriate text such as title, actors opening date logos, etc. Dimensions 24”x36” • Demonstrate good design concepts such as balance, rhythm and unity. • Use Photoshop to create interesting layers and effects.
Original vs. Reprint • Sometimes the quality of the reprint is as good as the original as printing technology and reproduction techniques are getting better all the time. Without having them side by side, it may be impossible to tell the difference. Again, if you should have a question on whether the poster you are acquiring is indeed an original, please ask whoever is offering it to you for clarification. That is why all of our posters are clearly marked with the words Original or Reprint in the item description. We also use these codes:(O) = Original 27x40 approximately(R) = Reprint, 26x40, 27x39, or 27x40 approximately(C) = Commercial, sizes vary from 22x34 to 25x36 approximately(CR) = Commercial reprint, 26x38 approximately(COS) = Commercial Oversize, 26x38, 27x39, or 27x40 approximately(MP) = Masterprint, 11x17 or 11x14We use the different codes to differentiate between sizes, suppliers, and whether or not the poster has cast & crew credits at the bottom.
