My Student Organization had a free showing of the Dark Knight this semester, and I was in charge of the Marketing! biggrin.gif
So, I made a flyer/poster... and I photomanip'ed the Joker onto the streets of Downtown
Indianapolis. Now, I realize it isn't perfect... like the lights, and the piece of building that I forgot to erase... but it was a rushed job.

And the overlayed blueness irks me. But alas, it was, once again, a rushed job.

Yeah everyone from Indy was freaking out once they realized that it was Meridian St, and not the streets of Gotham.

This is pretty effing LEGIT. Seriously. Awesome.


Except, only one who really knows Photoshop/PSP/whatever would think about it, but, I think the blue exclusion look in the bottom right corner is a bit too strong. Yes, it makes the joker stand out but just a wee bit too much, IMO.

But, i'm a freak who likes to analyze the lighting on things so. Yeah.




& OMFG. HAI RACHAEL! It's Kristina. Remember me? =/ I just saw your CBSpace comment!

I agree with Kristina.

But this is soooooo good. I don't think I could ever pull off something like this. Great ass job! flowers.gif

This is awesome!! I really really love it.

The only problem I have with it is the position of Joker. I don't like how it looks like the pole is coming right out of his head. But then I took another look and I guess it works, because it looks like there are horns which is... awesome. biggrin.gif

I don't either, but it was the offical Dark Knight poster font.

Niice, looks pretty legit. I kind of have to agree with Kristina about the blue exclusion thing, though.

I really like this. I think you did a great job editing this. It's not really proportioned right though. The Joker looks so much bigger than the vehicles in the street. Honestly, its really good for a rush job though! :)

Yeah, I agree with you. However, when I made him proportional, he didn't stand out enough. I needed people to see him immediately and recognize that the Dark Knight was playing... so I left him larger.
