Mark Feb 20 03:26:30pm Typographical mess. Maybe they were attempting to emulate a Japanese poster because this would have worked if the type were actually Kanji. Western typewill always looks like a mess running vertically especially with the spacing between letterforms being so large. It's too jarring for the reader and nearly invisible on the quick read. The rising sun as the O is clever but it would have worked just as well running horizontally. The other problem with running the Title vertically like that is it has thrown the rest of type elements off a balanced grid.
Yolo Feb 08 11:33:08am Beautiful Simplicity
Felipe Feb 07 05:33:50pm Really cool poster. It gets a bit weird around the back of Matthew's neck, but that's just nitpicking. The title treatment alone sells it.
Nice Feb 07 02:07:37pm Saw these same comments yesterday for some other poster, dropping the 'photoshop execution' line 'disaster' blah blah blah - but no details. Just don't bother, you didn't get the job! (Oooooh, how DARE they do something unconventional with the TT!!)
bev Feb 07 01:57:04pm nice job. slow read, but worth the extra .005 seconds for sure.
Double Take Feb 07 01:20:21pm Matthew Fox has never looked more like Matthew Modine. This would be beautiful if all the type were layer out vertically like the title.
@oof Feb 07 12:15:37pm your opinion is wrong. ;) this is nice. :)
issac Feb 07 07:34:22am Very attractive work! Just despite the photoshop disaster, it is still a nice piece of art.
Shannon Feb 07 04:07:12am That "O" in "Emperor" Very Creative.
olo Feb 07 02:35:58am VERY NICE!
oof Feb 07 01:47:19am Kinda a mess. Very weird to see the title like that IMO.
Sarah Feb 07 12:47:13am I actually like this poster. Too bad it has to follow suit with everyone else and put all that text on the bottom.
