The city in question, New Shasta, is enforced by its own people and armed with the city&#8217;s very limited weapons laws. As such, the people are relatively quick to cull the heretics that endanger the public peace. These people are directed to apprehend and\/or use lethal force when they are directed to by a government announcement. The general theme is meant to be a relatively futuristic city with a calm &#8220;everything is ok&#8221; mood, with something clearly wrong going on in the back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To create this, I used primarily Adobe Illustrator, which is by far the software that I am most familiar with. I did go through a couple sketches on purple Post-It notes, which tends to be standard, and from those sketches I came up with the idea of using two-halves of a face, one with a wounded smile and the other with a mask. Since a lot of media tries to show a villain\/antagonist by obscuring the eyes, I decided to put the title text where the eyes would be. That way, the eyes would be hidden for a logical reason, and it would also make compositional sense. I imported the text and industry logos\/ratings from a photoshop document. I used the image trace function to create proper illustrator objects out of the imported images so I could change the colors and such. The other main detail was the background- I was worried that creating a background in Illustrator given the time I had would be difficult to execute, so I used a stock photo of a city in portrait taken by Izuddin Helmi Adnan. I lowered the opacity down to 20% so it would would still impart the setting without being too loud and stealing the focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"612\" height=\"792\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_Movie_Moodboard-01.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_Movie_Moodboard-01.png 612w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_Movie_Moodboard-01-232x300.png 232w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><figcaption>I created this moodboard based on neon\/dystopian ideas that I could find around the internet with a couple other things- like George Orwell&#8217;s covers, since I thought they might make good graffiti later on.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"691\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_MovPos-01-691x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_MovPos-01-691x1024.png 691w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_MovPos-01-203x300.png 203w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_MovPos-01-768x1138.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_MovPos-01-1037x1536.png 1037w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_MovPos-01-1382x2048.png 1382w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ErnestC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Chau_Ernest_MovPos-01.png 1944w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 691px) 100vw, 691px\" \/><figcaption>And here is the final project&#8230;<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nation of Beasts This movie poster is for a screenplay entitled &#8220;Nation of Beasts,&#8221; which is a dystopian film based around a very simple but morbid premise.
