Hi all!

Been working on a new project, let me know what you guys think.

Thank,
Tamas

Need to look at that text, the gold is not working, nowhere near enough contrast, also the all caps don't work for me, that's generally considered a big no-no for paragraph texts where readability is the goal.

Think the Photoshop filtering on the stills is over done for my taste but if you like it then it's ok I guess lol.

Not sure the little poster works on the top right back, it really feels out of place and the colors in it clash with the rest of the cover, totally different palette.

Thanks CT,

Made some changes. trying to work out the color scheme, I had a feeling about the title poster. :-)

Font size on the back is quite large, you need shrink that down quite a bit, really think the text would be better in a light color like the spine, also the back images could be brightened up some.

Ct gave some excellent suggestions. I have to admit that the stills look far better without the filter effect. Which is kind of funny for me to say when I tend to go filter crazy with the art on my covers. :angel:

Have you considered adding a small border around the stills, and maybe a small line/border in between the 2 images?

Some more changes using the good old philosophy: little putty, little paint makes us what we ain't.

That looks a lot better Tamas! We couldn’t see the Blu-ray logo on the spine on your first shot and now it’s more visible with the perfect color. The lighter color for your synopsis is much better and the border around the stills and line between the 2 images is perfect! I would have kept the color like you had it before without an image behind the synopsis, but that's your choice. Nice one!

also the spine logos are a bit close to the edge consider reducing them a tad

and the fbi ,copyright logos etc might look better if transparent and colorise to suit.

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the suggestions, got the logos on the spine smaller, but not sure what you mean about the logos in the block. :-)
