Classroom Exercise: Talking Forms

The lecture on Visual Principles was very interested - I never really thought about the whole balance thing in posters before. Movie posters do catch my eye though, and I guess that's where the poster designer succeeded.

The lines we used in rush was supposed to show the 'running trail' of the person, but it just looks like lines. The furious face was just... a furious face haha. Reddy pointed that out to us, said it could definitely be simplified further - so we changed it, to this:

I think this sums it up better. :)
