Poster Font/Colours

After trying a few fonts out I decided to go with a font you have seen in some of my previous posts. It suits this poster well as it adds a dynamic and powerful touch to the image.

I have been inspired by modern film posters and created a black-gradient at the bottom as space for advertising logos and cast.

 Green is a great colour for the poster with connotations of freshness, nature and originality. It serves well in this picture but is slightly too joyful and happy in conjunction with the picture.

 Black is the opposite - it contrasts perfectly with the clouds and stands out like a sore thumb. This is great as it is noticeable but it connotes darkness, grunginess and evil. As my target audience is fellow mountaineers I am looking for colours that suit the concept of nature slightly better.

 

 Blue suits nature well as it is the colour of water and the sky. It connotes tranquillity and flow. However it blends in with the sky slightly too much and doesn't resemble the natural environment or the sense of adventure quite as much as green.

This teal colour is between blue and green. Unfortunately it seems to remind me of someone when they feel sick - this colour is not pleasant to say the least.

This darker green connotes nature, originality and adventure. It's the correct shade to show it is green whilst being dark enough not to connote joy and happiness. It has some power behind it and implies some sense of seriousness too. This does perfectly.
