If you can work it out, id say try the title on top rather than on the bottom.

Looks petty done to me. Only one thing. Maybe try align the right side of the synopsis?

Like the update , but it's not my style a little bit more retails for me, but nice work on this :)

So, I will be honest, I forgot about this WIP. For JR and NR, I have tried avoiding the parchment/book thing just because it is done so much, I have never had it turn out well for me. I appreciate the suggestions, I just couldn't make it work like some of the better artists can. But I did do as Nike suggested, scale down Gollum a tad, which led to a little more breathing room on back. Added a few more effects, smoothed out the art to better blend, and I think I am ready to upload this bad boy.

think JR's idea of some parchment use could work well for the specials and possibly the synopsis as well

Not bad! :) However, the great image of Gollum on the back could still be "large and in-charge" without being large. Why not shrink his image to give the text breathing room and allow room for stills or more scenery of the cave?

Maybe match the colors of the text with the tt some more?

by Salsa » Sat Mar 30, 2013 5:04 am

I like Gollum better. nice update

by gutterballs » Sat Mar 30, 2013 2:56 am

I'm not really in love with that Gandalf image anyway... What if I used Gollum instead?

While I think you've got the typography down, I'm not a fan of the text-over-back image though. To keep with the LOTR theme how about adding the synopsis/SFs to a piece of parchment? You can take a look at the retail Harry Potter covers (or LOTR) covers for inspiration for the text layouts.
