Poster AssignmentTHE IDES OF MARCH MOVIE POSTER

A bit about The Ides of March (Film summary)

As Ohio's Democratic primary nears, charming Gov. Mike Morris (George Clooney) seems a shoo-in for the nomination over his opponent, Sen. Pullman (Michael Mantell). Morris' idealistic press secretary, Stephen Meyers (Ryan Gosling), believes in his candidate's integrity and the democratic process. But Meyers' meeting with Pullman's campaign manager (Paul Giamatti) and a dalliance with a young intern (Evan Rachel Wood) set in motion events that threaten Morris' election chances.

The Ides of March (The Poster)• In the poster of the movie ‘The ides of March’,

there’s a guy holding time magazine cover and inside the cover, there’s another guy. • The pictures of two guys are compiled in such a way

that they look almost the same until we look into the picture closely.• Then there’s a list of names of people written on top

and on the time magazine, there’s a quote, “Is this Man Our Next President?”• And at last, there’s a bold heading of the name of

the movie with sans-serif font.

Ides of March Poster’s Model Shoot - 1For the first model, I had myself. Yep, I was the first model. My shoot was done by a friend named Meher Khalid. And the picture you see on the right is the final picture we selected for the poster. For this picture, we had to do a few things about the hair. Plus, we had to remove the background of this image since we wanted to use a single background color for the poster.

had in front of his face was made using Adobe Illustrator.• It was not that difficult. We made the

shaped and filled it with black color. • The picture you see on the right is the

vector we made using Adobe Illustrator though. • The cover was made in the resolution

300. • Later it was cropped to fit the poster.

only me as the model. • The picture you see on the right is the

final thing we made using Adobe Photoshop. • Later, it was told my a friend that we

had to use two models and compile them into a single poster.

• And at the end, we compiled two photos together. At the right side of the image, I used the cropped photo of Hamza Hassan. • Used some brightness and color setting,

and then wrote a couple of text to make it look exactly like the original.• The picture you see on the right is the

final poster for the movie.
