The Star Wreck 2pi: Full Twist, now! -team is looking for your ideas and comments. Join and show your support for Star Wreck 2pi: Full Twist, now!. Design the PosterThis task is closed
Closing NoteWe go with Phillipe ones DescriptionIt's time to design a poster for Star Wreck 2pi. You find photos to do so here: Pictures from Energia:
Photos from Captain Stöcklin, Dramakulian General and the Dramakulian Ships. You also find the actual poster:
If you need a specific elements like ships, just drop a message and I will render it and post it here. It's just that there are so many possibilities to do that. More material might come as that task go. The poster must be able to be printed on A0. We will ned a PSD file so that we can still edit the text with actors and so later. Remember: Th original "In the Pirkinning" cast only appear as supporting characters in this movie. If you want to integrate Pirk and Dwarf on the poster, they should not be the main element. This task is closed. Shots Part 5 Return of the PirkI think Pirk returned the balance, all hail the great Pirk ;) I could also manage to reinsert the logo which provides a good transition with the nebula in the background and the space battle in the foreground. Okay, so I didn't do the blue thing cause it made things look too... well eh blue. Looking forward to your comments. 
Commentsarghhh....too many nice posters!!!!
Hi Thierry, Yes, indeed I'm also looking forward to other peoples opinion. :) Cannot decide what is best yet, let's see what other people think.... Ze problem captain, is that both pictures are not of same quality to begin with. Pirk's picture was really good, while Stöckli was of lesser quality (not much contrast on face). They all had the same treatment. I will add a second version where the characters are left natural. Starting to really look good.
Question for other: What do you think of the title font/style ? Shall we have more smaller element on the side (more characters?) Part4Like I said, I took a U-turn and started with a fresh slate. Dare I say I'm kinda happy with the results? ;) Of-coarse I'm looking forward to your comments, as always. 
CommentsHey, No problem, I will try some different approaches and add Emperor Pirk. Thanks :) Would it be possible to add Emperor Pirk some where in the picture ? I think it's nessecary to have him on the picture, so fans know that he will appear, and to show that the movie is related to other Star Wreck movies. Have you tried to use other tinting ? Maybe a blueish colour could work, too. Also an interesting approach! I think the nebula on the lower part is too distracting, it should mainly be black, maybe just using some kind of standard milky way background... because as it is, the ships don't really stand out and you don't get it's in space right away. I think the image would benefit if that was clearer... Anyway, great work! I personally still prefer Version 2 though, because it has such a great dynamic :D Part 3I had to change the composition in order for the other ship to fit in. I tried several things but the whole started to looking cluttered - like alchemy add one more ingredient to the formula and the whole goes kaboom! ;) Anyway, let me know what you think! 
CommentsThats true, but maybe you could use the bottom left Dramculian ship to replace that second "Enterprise" in the upper row, the one you see straight from the front... because it's perspective doesnt really match the "warp rays", and by doing it you would at least have included one Dramculian ship in the poster... to make the armies of Dramculian fans out there happy ;D Would you believe they all look a little odd. They're great looking ships on their own but look strange once you try to use em in a composition.
But no panic I requested some specific items, and I am confident to make something decent out of it. I posted, a second one with the ships below, IMO doesn't cut the cheese (there's like to much going on). I can imagine - on the other hand, it's not as recognizable as the other Trek/Wreck ships. Probably viewers will wonder what it is anyway..? Maybe it'd be better to just add some Drama fighter ships at the bottom that chase the P-Fleet from a distance? Hey Kalle, thanks for your comment.
Stay tuned! Hmmm you're right, it's complicated. I think the symmetry of the two captains is nice. My feeling about the Drama ship is, the wings or cannons or what those things are should match the eyeline of the captains. But then, the ship would probably cut off at the top. Maybe make it 20% bigger so the cut is more decisive.
Version 2I followed Fabienne's advice and made it look less abstract (or plastic looking). Also, I found the text has been put differently so it has more swoosh. Comments are welcome like always! 
CommentsThanks Kalle! :) No worries Thierry, I have well recieved the ships in the mail. I'll be on my way trying to include them on the poster Capt'n. ;) Stay tuned! So I prepared some Dramakulian ships. Had friend over yesterday, and there was the event in Oslo. Once the Dramculian ship is included, I think we have a winner :D Hey Fabienne,
Looking forward to it! Cool, now it looks really great.
Thanks Kalle, I have added a version without the glowing around the captain. ;) Also the glow from the ships, I noticed there was something wrong with them too. I think it's finer now. YEAH! That's really awesome!!! The only thing I find to nit-pick now is the slight white outline around the captain :P Great work though!! Just of the pressOf - coarse I didn't yet add the bottom text and the title is also there to give a general idea. For now it's the artwork, further modification is possible. Comments are welcome! I have the psd file, just let me know if you need it. 
CommentsCoincidence? Pah! It's the mysterious ways of The Force!!! ...erm... Ooops, sorry, wrong movie ;D Hey Thierry, indeed I had no idea the Orion Nebula would actually be in the movie - I just thought it was good looking.. :) Also a nice coincidence that you choose to have the orion nebula in the background, which is actually also used in the movie, since Dramakulian Empire is somewhere located in the region of space.
Wow, that really looks pretty cool! I agree though that the "paint effect" on the captains face makes it seem a little too distorted... Still, the best poster design so far :D Thanks Fabienne,
Wow, nice poster. Maybe just reducing a little bit the "plastic wrap" effect on the main persons?
Thanks Thierry, looking forward to it! That looks really great. I think I should send you pictures of the Dramakulian ships. Will do that tonight.  CommentsI really have to say, that I like the idea of a poster without any "human" on it. But I think then, so poster must really be perfect to attract attention... (?) Few example:
http://discountpostersonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Star-Trek-Final-Domestic-Poster.jpg Cheers
Alright, here goes one with the small ships on top as well. Using the bigger vessels at the bottom of the raven seemed to unbalance the entire image, so I left that one out. I also attached the source .pdf so anybody feeling like it can play around and come up with alternate solutions! Hum, have you tried switching top and bottom ships on the 2nd?
Removed some that didn't seem to work and added one where the little ships are always maintained at the bottom and the top side is altered (blank starry background) Please feel free to advise any changes you feel I should make/could test. Good stuff :]
Nice ones! I would like to see the second poster without the ships at the top of the poster. The ships at the bottom are ok. And the fonts looks good! (Thierry: I know it is annoying when wreckamovie contributors want something you don't like :) The concept is good. Maybe we could stretch or squize the the Star Trek font so it is next that obvious. Nice work Angela! I like the first one best :D
Simplicistic versions...Just some random simple stuff I made while hunting for better ideas. I'm still working on it, but please feel free to yell in case any of them contains elements you deem worth maintaining. (Personally I like the 3rd one best) 
CommentsHello Angela I agree with Kari, the last one, with the ships looking through the eagle is really great. The idea is amazing : ) But also the Twistdrive-Font of the third one is cool...A Tshirt would be a nice idea. Actually I saw in Germany a webpage where you can design your shirt and it is no too expensive (around 23Euro per shirt...)
Do you think it would also be possible to use the greek "pi" symbol? Cheers
The ones with the ship shooting through the eagles head look strange. Looks like the head is split into two. I like the third one, the one with the text "2PI TWISTDRIVE". Can I have it as a t-shirt? (without the "Star Wreck" word)  new testand here a new test... I would need also need something to replace the red placeholder image. And also a good Title-Layout. 
CommentsI've added the file with others:
Fabienne, could you share the images of the twister vessels? I do not have anything like that and I think it would help me come up with some better ideas for you guys. :) I agree, Kalle's is very good. It's very powerful, fulfills the standard of saucy film poster very well. Kris' point, the different sized characters, is very important, I think. Yeah, I would vote for Kalle's approach, it says "action" much more IMHO. Perhaps his poster benefits from having the different characters different sizes, which gives it a Star Wars-ish feel? This is not bad at all, although I would personally still try and work towards something looking more like what Kalle suggested...  CommentsSorry, went through all files from Samuli. Don't have the 3d model of the title.
The title is not definitive and is subject to change. Well I guess we should start with a good logo for the film title. Or do you want to keep your current red title? Do you want it to look similar to the "Star Wreck in the pirkinning" logo? If yes do you have that logo as a 3D file? Nice idea, but Pirk is only a supporting character in this movie. Yes, also a good idea : ) Good, but this isn't "In the pirkinning". |

Yes, these one are in the movie.
But these are in the movie, right? :-)
The arrangement is not bad at all : ) A little bit empty but there is some good potential to improve it much more...
We don't have picture from her, at least not for this movie...
What do you mean, not important... isn't she Pirk's girlfriend?!? Hehhe :P
:-) But .... ok no girls.
We don't have pics from the girls, since they don't play really importants parts.
The director thought we don't need that.
Oh, okay, missed the briefing.
Hmm, were do I get pic of the other girl?
I can imagine, probably she got way too many fans and couldn't even go shopping without bodyguards anymore... She could have been the finnish Angelina Jolie if she had wanted it :D
From what I heard, she doesn't want to have anything to do with Star Wreck anymore.
(Otherwise she would be in...)
a real pity, BTW ;P
Nice, but the helmswoman is not that movie.
