Film Poster Remake | Oblivion


After watching several short films and getting inspirations from these films, I have decided to look and recreate an existing film poster from the film "Oblivion". Even thought last year at AS I had looked and analysed a film poster from "Interstellar", I still wanted to have a go at remaking a film poster from Oblivion so that this will help me for when I have to make a film poster for our final film at A2 as part of my ancillary task.

When I was remaking this poster from Oblivion, I was only allowed to use the existing picture of Tom Cruise in that pose for this poster. Otherwise I had to find images from the internet of Morgan Freeman and of the background that were not the same as the original poster I was attempting to copy. Despite the challenge I was given, I still tried my best to replicate the poster as much as possible considering my skills in Photoshop are fairly good. This process has now helped Alex and I to think about how we should be making our film poster for our short film. A factor however I need to be aware of is that film posters will generally include other bits of information such as the production companies, the director, the age rating etc. The minimalistic style are the sort of posters I really like. 

Below is a speedart clip of me making the film poster in a timelapse.
