In your tagline on the back, make the word "THE" the size of the world "UNTOLD" and make "UNTOLD" the size of "THE." Basically, just switch 'em.

In title treatments, headlines, or any other instance, "THE" should never be one of the words you emphasize. It's a nothing word.


Agreed. :agree:

A Nothing word? :D :D A new typography term?

Not really, I just made it up. I forget what part of speech "the" is... it's not a noun, verb, or adjective. Is it a definite/indefinite article? I can't remember...

Basically, any words that are practically meaningless all by themselves (a, an, the, of, is) should never be larger than words that actually mean something (story, untold, begins, amazing, spider-man).

looks better. Remember to keep the text aligned (Tagline/synopsis)

I want you to align the 'The Untold Story' tagline with the left side of the synopsis.

Also, can you increase the curves of the two characters on the back to match the front? They seem a little too dark

I think the actor's names on the front are too hard to see. How about moving them to the top?
