summer_of_giles redux ii: movie poster madness

Jul 03, 2009 17:45

It's confirmed, I'm addicted. 21 movie posters for 20 fics... there are so many Giles fics you might have reading material for the month (and they're from all different kinds of genres from angst to fluff, from crossovers to AUs).

( So, this way, for fic you can find at a livejournal near you! )

*character: giles, my graphics, my movie posters

OMG these are all gorgeous. The yellow crayon one just gets to me. Seems so right. Your choice of fonts in all of these is spot on. You have a great eye for these.

thank you so much lady!! I'm totally glad you like these - they have really been great fun to do (and i love that you notice the fonts - i have an obscene number of them, and it's so nice to get to use them in these to try and influence the mood). thank you again - your feedback always makes my day.

Wow. I'm awed. Incredibly well-done. I particularly love the deceptive simplicity of Normal Again and the idea to use pics of younger ASH and Robin Sachs in Choice of Several Deaths.

Kudos!

Thank you so much sweetest! These are definitely labors of love and I'm so glad they show (and it was so much fun, but also *hard* to find pics of the young ASH & RS... but I'm so glad it worked out as well as it did). Thank you again for the awesome feedback!

here's the link for the image (although it doesn't credit either as far as i can tell):

(basically I was google image searching for 'murder of crows' and ended up adding the extra birds to get the effect i wanted).

hope that helps!

Oh yay!! The 'By Any Other Name' poster is very cool. I like the black and white with just a little bit of color. The picture of Giles is great, I don't know the name of that effect, when the picture sort of blends in with the background, but it has a nice stark look to it. It makes me realize how mean I was to Giles in this fic, and I feel a need to go write something fluffy to make it up to him ( ... )

Hi lady! I'm so glad you like your 'By Any Other Name' poster! I wanted to go pretty stark and I'm so glad that came across! (and you're welcome to write some fluffy for Giles, although I do think he withstands the not-so-fluffy pretty well too, so whatever the muse suggests ( ... )

When I see your fanart it shocks me, every time, that you're not a professional designer/illustrator, because some of the pieces on here are easily better than the stuff we get sent on CVs/portfolios to the design company I work for.

Genuinely stunning.

*SQUISHES YOU TO ITTY BITTY PIECES* wow. thank you darling. that is seriously an amazing compliment!! Considering I'm no where near as talented as the graphic designers i know (well, ok, many of them are both graphic desiners and also artists of all kinds of different stuff), and i pretty much think of myself as an educated dabbler who can get something that won't make people shudder out there?

thank you.
