Yup, this is what we do with our long weekends in this house...

As many of you know, Omniprop Productions will be performing Aristophanes Lysistrata at the Melbourne Fringe Festival later this year. It will be represented in the Fringe Guide by this image:



The question is, should we also use this image for the poster? So far we think yes if only because we can't be arsed doing that much work on it again. We though we should get some quick opinions from others, so I said I'd ask the internet.

Internet? Think this would make a good poster?

I like it. It's clean, visually clear and they're very clearly soldiers. I think it might need slightly lighter mid tones or something, especially on the stomach, but that's just me. But seriously, it's awesome. I really like it.

Having the text in the upper left and lower right will work, too, since there's not much going on there, especially on the lower right. uh, how will text come out over the sheet? (If that's even where you're going to put it.)

I think it really works.

Thanks Lisa,

I made the adjustments you suggested (I think - I really don't know what 'slightly lighter mid tones' are, but I made the stomach less red, so it looks a bit more natural).

Looks better - thanks for the suggestion!

t's essentially keeping the highlights and shadows as they are but making the tones in between them a leeetle bit lighter. Sorry. I talk crap a bit.

What sort of text are you thinking of using on it?

(AKA, I am really interested in all of this but OMG, I don't have much time at the moment.)

I haven't thought that far ahead yes. The image is being done now because I have to submit it as part of the registration for the festival.

But it'll have to be dark, maybe even something matching the colours of the solders... I dunno.
