Our Postcard

 Postcard ideas

My group and I started doing a few postcards for the print component. We were all excited to make them given that we enjoy making things like this and already had ideas for them. We made two postcards in total, eugenia and Sasha both started different ones and I added the information. They both turned out really good which makes it hard to pick which one to use. 

Postcard 1-

(back)

This one was the postcard that Sasha did, I added and organized all the information in the back. For this one we decided to keep the front with the least information possible, simultaneously giving the reader the information needed to find the film. The front picture was chosen to outline the title (reaching the bar) which in the image the girl is literally doing what it says. This postcard has a constant color scheme of black and red so it emphasized the darker side of the film. This plus the image used in the back makes the postcard focused more on the depressive side of the film.  In the back, we included credits of the movies as well as contact information and a small sentence that summarizes the short film. 

Postcard 2- 

(back)

 

This one is the one eugenia designed, and I added the information in the back and front. For this one, we decided to have a brighter look at the movie. we decided to stick with a blue, white, red, and black color scheme as it's the colors most prominent in the gym. In the front we included a similar image as the first one, holding the bar, but double, making the front more interesting for viewer. In the front we also decided to include the film festival used, the date of released and nomination of awards we are aiming for (still not sure if we are keeping it though). In the back there's a lot more information like the credits, and contact information as well as the tittle again (in the same font as the front so its cohesive) and the small summarized sentence. For the images in the back I decided to combine two of the girls' putting on her gloves, blurring them out to have more similarities from the front and back (two images). I also added a small outline of a gymnast to tell the audience its a short film about gymnastics.
