Sorry for the delay in starting this challenge but there were several pressing matters that demanded my attention. Without further ado here is..... Challenge 7: Movie Poster
Don't let the title scare you, this should be a lot of fun and really stretch the creativity.
Required Subject: As the Advertising Director of a studio you are charged with creating an ad campaign to promote your latest film (either real or fictional). The primary tool for this promotion will be a movie poster, which will be plastered all over town by your loyal cadre of street urchins and out-of-work bicycle messengers.
Challenge Period: Sunday, February 2nd, 2003 until 8 PM PST on Monday, February 16th, 2003. All photos must be taken and movie posters submitted during this time period.
Rules: There will be no limitation to creativity or the use of photo editing software, however all primary images must be taken with an Olympus digital or dSLR camera during the challenge period. You are being placed on your honor, please don't abuse the trust.
How To Enter: Rename your poster to the title of your movie. Email a total of one challenge poster and/or up to two exhibition posters to [email protected] by 8 PM PST on February 16th, 2003. Please, ONE poster per email. You MUST put "challenge" or "exhibition" in the subject line when submitting photos to indicate which gallery your image should be posted. Please be kind, make sure the poster you submit is the FINAL version and if possible email well in advance of the deadline. Entries should provide:
1) Title of Movie
2) Olympus Digicam model
3) Name of photographer (dpreview nickname is fine)
4) Description, A short description of your movie. (optional)
Please make sure you provide the information listed above in a clear manner. Remember, it is not always possible to determine your name or nickname from your email address so make sure you provide either your real name or your nickname.
About Sizing: All entries should be exactly 600x800. Portrait orientation only.
As per previous challenges the challenge gallery will remain hidden until the voting period begins. During the voting period photographers names/nics will be hidden.

Also keep in mind that many of us will want to know how you did this so keep track of the settings and process as you create your masterpiece. I'm not asking that you submit this information with the entries so that we are clearly judging the final product and not the methodology. As they say, there is more than one way to skin a cat but let's not get hung up on that.
This will be the last challenge exceeding El-See's great 12 day challenge suggestion. The period is longer to accommodate my work schedule and still get the challenge started, I hope you'll understand.
