Poster for the plays: "The Audition" and "The Twelve Angry Jurors"


  This is the best poster because it has just four colours: white, yellow and black. I chose these colours because they are strong ones that look good on black and attracts people to look at it and go to the play. It was done in Adobe Photoshop. It shows emphasis and the lights help doing it. It also shows contrast. This play is called "The Audition" and is performed by students of the Young Company. I chose this photo of the students because I wanted to show that it is done by experienced teenagers who want to give people a good show and demonstrate their talent. The lights show that this is kind of a scary play but also attractive. Also the back stage light looks like its giving sound at the same time it is projecting light with colour. The size of the words mean that there's important information that needs to be projected in a bigger way than the smaller ones that are not really important. The title is the bigger one to attract people for what is the name of the play. The space between the sentences helps to understand better what is going on and this way don't mess up with the poster and lots of colours.



  This poster shows the two plays: "The Audition" and "The Twelve Angry Jurors". However it is not so good as the first one, because it has lots of colours and the name of the second play is not well visible on the top of the chairs. This second play is a evil one and I chose the chairs because there are twelve jurors but one is different because is the most important one, the principal one that decides maybe when there's a tie between two teams. The colours I chose have the same meaning as I said in the first poster and the principles and elements of design too. However, here, in this poster, there is emphasis but not just on one point, so it's hard to understand what is going on and where to look first. The colours needed to be changed to the ones that are in the first poster.

I prefer the first poster because I worked hard on it and it is well organized, better than the second one. I used some special tools in Adobe Photoshop to do some special techniques, like the Magnetic Lasso Tool.
