This is one of the first drafts of our poster, we have
settled on the name ‘Her Majesty's Wasteland’, the poster accentuates some of
the themes presented by this name. Given the large, regal crown in the middle
of the poster, the reference to the royal family (an iconic sign of Britain) is
obvious, this further outlines the British touch which we are trying to display
as one of the main focus points of our film. The character on the poster is
looking away from the viewer. This is a nice change to the conventional theme
of characters giving a direct look towards the audience. This makes the
character look much more real and gritty, as if he doesn't really care about
the fame of the cover. The fact that he is holding his gun in his hand closest
to the camera is an obvious hint to the violence within the film. The gun also
compliments the character's distraction, it makes it seems as if the character
is distracted by something dangerous enough that he may need to use his gun.
The font of the poster is very grand, in the way that the viewer's attention is
immediately attracted to the title, however at the same time the font also
looks gritty and brutal. The themes presented in the font are exactly what we
attempt to portray in our film; a grand, melodramatic piece with gritty, cruel
undertones.
