Post Please, critique!! Typographical poster
This A1 poster was school project.
The aim was to describe movie, attract reader to read more, to handle big amount of information, and to create system, witch can be applied to any other movie.
Here only one font family was used.
Please, say what you think about layout, typography mistakes, space around.
Be straight forward! :!:

Interesting, I like the stacking /tucking the type, and I only noticed only one baseline shift slumdog millionaire and the word love above millionare.

Here is my thought though, with all this copy, and although I can tell you worked in indesign, I would almost like for the long band and the suporting copy to generate an image even if an abstracted image, say like a building with windows, or a city skyline with the type. When you pull back, it looks a bit erratic as to why you have small blurbs of copy branching off of the emphasized text. Also have the emphasied keywords smack in the center, remember rule of thirds, if needed to turn this in asap, at least get the band of copy off center.

I think this is a great exercise in typography, but I would almost say, try to have a bit more fun with it, it seems a bit rigid.

sacrafise? Isn't it spelled like this; Sacrifice?

anyway, cool poster! I really like it. Might be too much words though. If you could make a picture of out all words, that may be better.
