[Film] Help me with a design choice...

[gripper stebson]

A would get me to read the blurb. B, probably not.

... and that's all that matter. It's mental that you spend a year of your bloody life on these things and they are sold by a two inch image on someones TV!

 

[Eric the meek]

Sorry if this comes across as negative, but I don't think either of them particularly capture the sense of loss, bewilderment and yearning of a parent whose child has been missing for six long years.
For instance, the woman in B looks more angry than grieving for a missing child.

It might have helped if you had given your reasoning for the styling you have chosen. What are you trying to convey?

A for me

Not negative at all.

All I need to do at this point is get people to either read the blurb or click 'PLAY'.

It's really hard to convey much when you have a 2 inch thumbnail to work with... that'll come with the attached blurb hopefully once interest has been piqued.

Cheers x.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Another one for A
B doesn't pique my interest at all

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

A for me.

 

[The Clamp]

Changing to A.
B does look like a romance.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

I prefer B as a design but think A has more emotional pull.

 

[gripper stebson]

Changing to A.
B does look like a romance.

So fickle.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

A) looks like a murder enquiry, B) looks like a romance.

This

 

[The Optimist]

A for me. Looks gritty. B looks more soppy / emotional

In that case, I would choose A. Black text on a white background and left to right text is a bit more user friendly. Also, with B, your eye is first drawn to the woman, and it takes you a moment to register what the text reads. Note also that when motorway signs were being designed, people spent a lot of time researching what made them easy to read at speed. One of the findings was to put everything in upper and lower case, so 'Brighton, Hove, Six years gone'. Good luck.

As said A murder and B twee.

Without a synopsis do you want NSC to come up with C?

I'll be watching it anyway. Been a fan since Newhaven tunnels and onwards.

I shall pass that on to Veronica!!

 

[Meade's Ball]

B suggests they are deceased. Gone, dead, ghostly. The actress' expression doesn't speak to me of a child missing. Whilst A seems loyal to the plot line.
But the question is which would prod my intrigue most, and I think a.

 

[Notters]

A. B looks like a chick flick tbh.

 

[B-right-on]

A..

 

[boik]

A for me too.

 

[BN9 BHA]

Definitely A
