Fun competition

Postby Pip » Mon Aug 24, 2020 10:08 pm

Most of you won't know but Christian Keller, the Producer and Director of Gloria (2014) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2618368/ joined the site and has requested a custom Blu-Ray cover for his own personal use. So I thought for a bit of fun I'd put it up as a competition.

There is a folder with stills from the movie, posters and other files which may be of assistance here.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16ptaWg7kBJKX9PsgsGprvTpPCITixJMr?usp=sharing

As it's a requested cover there is a wish list of features.

"I would love to include some sort of visual representation (either the awards statue of the Mexican Academy Awards (called Arieles) that the film has won or "laurels", for which I've included a template). So, it won 5 Arieles - see document "Quick Description" . It would be nice to highlight that the film won for both "Best Actress" and "Best Actor" and was nominated in the "Best Picture" and "Best First Time Director" categories.

I also, if possible, I'd like to include some of the quotes about the film by critics. I have included some example posters, where this was nicely achieved. Perhaps we could take some inspiration from those. It would be quite nice to include "stars" as well for the quotes, as in some of the reference posters.

Basically, I'm very excited to let the artists do their magic! I just want it to look exciting, fun, and beautiful! :) "


So folks, if you are interested let's see what you can come up with.

Covers must be uploaded by 12 midnight GMT Monday 7th September. Please do not upload elsewhere until after the competition.

Any questions just ask.

Thank you very much to the two entries! Honestly, I love them both - and they both include very exciting elements and ideas!

So, I would suggest either a tie :) as both are awesome covers! or a win for Option B. Because I love how much thought has gone into it all the little beautiful details and it's brilliant how the audience wraps around the front and back covers! :)

Thank you so very much to both designers for your great work!! It really means a lot!
