Poster Ideas

As our music video focuses heavily on a geek, we have taken that theme into consideration for our ideas. Considering we shall have various Computer game posters I thought of an retro/arcade type of poster, such as Pacman or Space Invaders.

Taken from the arcade game screen and then modify it slightly, such as having Mute math and Spotlight instead of the status at the bottom of the screen. Then instead of the “ghost” having the band members instead.
The white dots on the black background also signify the spotlight in the video, or even some of the posters around the “geek’s” bed room will also link the poster with the video.


Another idea could be, instead of the Ghosts picture, character name /nickname have the band member’s pixel image name and then what they do within the band, E.g. Bob/ lead singer. Then Mute math at the top of the page with spotlight underneath. We could also interoperate the font from a Mute math poster which is already out there, or keep it with the retro font.

Instead of the Pacman idea we could change it to Space Invaders, for instance the green block could become the band and instead of the aliens replace them with letters and have the band name and song title there instead.
Or another idea we have had for the poster is to take a still from the video and put the band and song tile over the top of it to make it look like a poster which they have already released. Such as one of their current posters.
