Inspiration Pieces:
 |
| Most documentary posters are black and white to help tell the story, so I like that color is used and I can still see the story through the eyes of the man in the picture. Also, putting the white title on a red background helped draw my attention to the main point of this poster. |
 |
| The picture takes up almost the whole poster, so it is the optical center. The picture on the poster gets my attention before I even notice the words. |
 |
| I like the simple text and that the picture is the main portion of the poster. The black and white effect helps make the picture appear more interesting and dramatic. |
