Today kicks off a poster design competition we've been planning for a little while now.
Since our photo shoot at Tower Bridge Studios where we got some amazing imagery of our ensemble of main characters for the film in full costume & make-up we've been wanting to see them turned into posters. And Damien thought, instead of just getting a graphic designer to make posters to our brief, why not invite people from the online filmmaking and creative design community to see what they would do given the script and imagery and allowed to add their own creative magic. And we can get their creative work seen and out there amongst film and design people and the winning poster design would be used as the film artwork and be seen wherever the film and news of the film will travel. Which we plan to cover all seven continents!
We're also inviting our winner and runners up to the film premiere at BAFTA (or the online premier and Q&A for those too distant to travel) and every entrant will be invited into our online community of supporters and backers where they can follow the project updates from start to finish and interract with us and the rest of the community.
The competition runs from 12th August to 12th September 2011 and will be judged by an amazing panel of film and design world judges who liked our project and were happy to give some time to helping us choose the branding that will best serve our film.
They are:
Matthew Leyland from 'Total Film' Magazine
Chris Jones author of the Guerilla Film Makers Handbook
Ben and Chris Blaine the top UK filmmaking brothers behind Charlie Productions
Chris Patmore Editor of Film & Festivals Magazine
