Final Poster - Polarize

The theme I was using when making poster was 'Seeing things in a different way'  as I think this matches my songs meaning. The song is Polarize by Twenty One Pilots and the meaning is that a boy is distraught about his child hood and is trying to see his life in a different way, hence the name 'polarize'

I've decided to use a black and white theme because it goes hand in hand with the black and white effect that I use in my finished music video. This is great as the continuity from the video and the poster now overlap and that's exactly what I wanted to achieve. it will also hopefully compliment the album cover as I intend to make that black and white too.

The actual face is made from lyrics of the song 'Polarize' And I think that this effect matches the theme as its a visual trick and you are seeing his face through what he is singing. So you are in a way 'Polarizing' by seeing his face in a 'different light' just like you see Michael in the video in a different way.

I used a lens flare over the whole poster as it symbolizes polarize sunglasses that remove glare from the sun in your eyes. And as the song is called Polarize I thought that this helps get the message across to anyone that doesn't understand the message. I also plan to position the lens flare in the top left hand corner of my album cover so they have some sort of similarity between the two.

I didn't want to use the same effect as the album cover on my poster because I want to show as many different ways you can see the same image to match my theme of 'seeing things in a different way'
