Work Based Learning - Final Design

This is my final design for Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window:

 

I wanted to create a poster that appealed to the cinema's current flow of customers - the avid film fanatics - as well as target a brand new younger audience.

The bold title and 'rip' effect was aimed at the new generation of customers, as a sort of modern twist on an old classic.

Work Based Learning

I've just received my latest live brief for the Tyneside Cinema as part of my Work Based Learning Module. We have been asked to recreate a famous Alfred Hitchcock film poster and the best final designs will be displayed in the cinemas café. The Hitchcock film I will be recreating is 'Rear Window'.
