Poster Project (edited)

I cannot really pick a favorite movie but the Dukes of Hazzard is fairly high up on my list. the movie poster is the same as the DVD cover but its simplicity fits the movie itself. It has most if not all of the major characters and is fairly easy to identify which role each actor has. Recognizing each key character is key for drawing in fans of the older TV show, then of course there's the legendary car directly in the center like its meant to be the first thing the viewer is meant to see. Keeping things close to the shows lore is key to drawing in the fans of the show, but at the same time making slight changes and updating some things is also a key for drawing in new fans or people who did not know about it before. In my poster i plan on doing something similar with putting the important characters up front, however instead of just having a empty and open field in the background, it will emphasize that there are 2 large forces fighting and will have them split up on either side to keep it organized.

Movie plot - FLAME WAR

Title : FLAME WAR

Story: For years there has been fighting over the internet arguing over which is better for gaming - PC or consoles. After hundreds of years of the arguing going on it eventually turns into a real life "Flame War" (a pointless argument over the internet where nobody is actually right or wrong). My character is going to be the neutral-evil protagonist doing what he can to make both ends stop fighting by any means. The genre would be a mix of action thriller and gaming-Sifi where different PC/Console based game characters/machines are being created

Poster description: I was planning on having my character closest to the front/viewer with each "war boss" on either side representing the 2 sides. Behind them is a desolate battlefield with the 2 forces divided on either side -both with their own special "units" up front and more towards the middle. The sky will be stormy with a dark red tint to add to the atmosphere.

Interview Reaction

His art style really reminds me of the old Dudly-Do-Right and Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons. He seems to be really poplar as well but doesn't let his popularity inflate his ego. It was almost like talking to a fellow classmate when reading his responses. It's also good to know that hes open to new ideas and is wiling to try new things. Knowing that famous professionals still use the same programs we are learning to use now is also nice to know.
