Assignment 1

First individual assignment is to make a movie poster for a dark comedy entitled 'Dreams'.

first off was the brain storming and sketching in class.

[insert scanned sketches(after i fix my scanner)]

Anyway, after consulting. I was left with a poster that showed a burning match and an extinguished candle. this was to show a reversal of sacrifice, i.e. a child sacrificing for his parents... etc. although i liked the idea alot, it was quite a task to illustrate the story.

so whilst thinking of how i should do the poster, i thought of another idea that involved conjoined twins. following that idea, and my limited drawing abilities, i came up with the poster for assigment 1.

basically, the story is about a conjoined twin where one of the does not grow old (Mr. A.) and the other does (Mr. B). Mr B sacrifices his whole life so that the brother (Mr. A) would not have to work. Mr A takes advantage and leads a carefree life, whilst Mr B works.
in the end, Mr. B dies, and so doing, Mr A dies too.


things that need to be fixed:
text
drawing
colours

there will be an update for this poster in the near future.
