SINCE MY MOVIES NAME IS CALLED THORN I TRIED TO STAY WITH THE IDEA OF VINES AND THORNS WHILE SHOWING ASPECTS OF ROSE THORNS WITHOUT REALLY REVEALING THE ROSE, HOPEFULLY MAKING IT TIE IN BETTER WITH THE SUPPOSED THRILLER SIDE OF THE MOVIE, SO IT TRIED TO REPRESENT THE IDEA OF LOVE AND ROSES THROUGH THE COLOUR RED INSTEAD.
DRAFT IDEAS
I STARTED OFF THE POSTER IN PHOTOSHOP, USING THE POLYGONAL LASSO TOOL I CREATED THE VINES AND ADDED THORNS, I THEN ADDED THE WHITE BORDER IN AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE THE VINES POP OUT MORE. I ORIGINALLY WANTED TO MAKE THE POSTER IN SIMPLE SOLID COLOURS BUT DECIDED TO ADD SHADOWS IN THE VINES THE THIRD PHOTO WHICH I PERSONALLY ENDED UP LIKING MORE SO I KEPT IT.
I THEN STARTED TO ADD THE TITLES AND TEXT USING BRIGHT RED BECAUSE IT POPS OUT FROM THE GREEN AND BLACK BACKGROUND ELEMENTS WHICH STOOD OUT REALLY WELL AND THE SUBTEXTS I WROTE IN DESCENDING GREY TO BLACK COLOURS IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE.
I STARTED TO SEE THE THORN TITLE PLACEMENT WEIRDLY (THE TITLE OVERLAPS THE VINES), EVEN THOUGH IT STICKS WELL OUT AND IS PROMINENT I FELT LIKE IT DIDN'T REALLY MERGE WELL WITH THE OTHER ELEMENTS SO I OVERLAPPED THE THORNS WITH THE TITLE. BUT BECAUSE OF THE SIZE, SCALE, PLACEMENT AND COLOUR OF THE TITLE THE WORD "THORNS" WAS STILL ABLE TO BE THE CENTRE OF ATTENTION.
​AFTER FILTERING MOST OF THE FLAWS I PERSONALLY FOUND I DECIDED TO ADD CHANGE THE BORDER TO RED TO TIE IN WITH THE BRIGHT RED TITLE, THE VINES OVERLAPPING THE MAIN TITLE WAS CUT SLIMMER TO REVEAL THE WORDS MORE CLEARLY AND THEN FINALLY I ADDED MORE VINES IN A DARK GREY COLOUR UNDER BOTH THE WORDS, MAIN VINES, AND RED BORDER TO CREATE EVEN MORE DEPTH IN THE POSTER
