Name - We originally kept the name of the actor 'Dan' for quickness and ease. However, due to the length of the name, we needed something that would fill the top of the image better, so the text size wouldn't have to be too large or stretched. We chose 'Tobias' as we believed that this suited out genre more, gave us more characters and didn't need manipulating to fit the top of the image.
Font Styles - We originally started with selecting colours that matches the background in the image. Brown was chosen to match the theme of nature, but was dull and blended in too much with the background. Going back to our original brainstorm, we decided that white would show the freedom and liberation we were trying to portray, as well as standing out on the page. To do this, we tested multiple shadows to make the text stand out.
Amount of Text - We again originally decided to have a large amount of text on our poster, advertising when tickets for the tour are out, when they're released, title of the tour, artist name and where to order tickets but this made the image too busy and crowded. We decided simplicity was best, and when comparing our poster to other similar products, ours had more than them.
