My expectations for the design of the film poster

My First expectation of the poster is to have the main character looking dominant in the center of the poster, and then having some other characters off the each side such as the antagonist and other villains or protagonists from the film. I then planned to have a city skyline as the background with the tile of the film and its credits below them. I drew up a draft of what this might look like;

However after researching more into the different styles and techniques photographers use when thinking about the positioning of their focus I came across the thirds rule, which is a relatively basic principle for those studying photography, and decided to apply it to my poster. The rule of thirds states that when framing a picture to have the most important item in one of the 3 thirds, this then lays more of the focus upon the main characters. So by applying this rule I moved the protagonist to the left of the page and had the extra characters off to the right of him. Then I had the title in the right third along with the credits.

After showing an audience my draft film the feel and style of the film seemed to collide with the content of the poster, I found myself wanting to have a more timeless feel to it. So the city skyline would put to must of a time stamp on the film. So the background needs a new image, I thought about having a treeline because you can’t put a time on a forest, since they have always been around.
