Changing The Effects For Titles On Poster

These print screens illustrate some of the changes I made to the title of the poster and some other texts on the poster.The first image demonstrates how I made the release date stand out more on the page. The effect I used to make it stand out more to an audience was drop shadow. The drop shadow helped it become darker and bolder. I experimented with all of the different effects but drop shadow is the only one that made a significant difference to the font.

Update 28/1/15: I have decide to add bevel and emboss effect on the release date as it makes it stand out even more than before. Just like the title it gave off a 3D look and I asked for audience feedback from my peers and it was agreed that the release date looked better with the bevel and emboss effect.

The images above show all the effects that I used on the film title. To make the title be the most prominent thing on the page, I played around with a lot of effects. The effects I decided to use in the end were drop shadow and bevel and emboss. These really helped make the title pop. It almost became 3D like to me when I added the effects, it's conventional for movie posters that the film title is the biggest on the page and I ensured it was bigger than the credits, taglines and the release date to conform to the conventions of a film poster.
