Posters

I've experimented with Adobe InDesign, creating three variations of my initial poster.
The first was drawnand set to scale to that of an A4 page, however on exportation, there is a thick white space border. Now I don't often see film posters with white borders around them, unless they are framed for decoration, so I don't think I'll be using it.
The second design resolves the problem by expanding the backgrouind image, stretching it to a full A4 page poster. The image is then bigger, yet the the text remains, giving the impression that it has moved closer into the image.

The third variation pushes these texts further towards the edges of the images, essentially creating a larger and more fitting version of the first poster.

In conclusion, I believe I will use the third image for the poster, as it is, in my opinion, the better of the three, as it is a good size and can be scaled down well to fit media cases such as DVDs, soundtrack CDs and other smaller, promotional media.
