theatre poster

I like it all very much except that 'Noor'. For me that part just isn't working. My reaction may just be one to the font. I imagine it was chosen because of its fluidity in relation to dance. If there's still time, I'd suggest thinking more about 'the light' aspect and less about fluidity. Perhaps there's a better balance between the two. I do find the final colour of that 'Noor' more pleasing than the earlier version.

I think you did a great job of incorporating all the secondary text and logos.

No its not to late as its not finalised yet. There is another important logo to be placed in the top left hand corner. Noor and some other text was to have originaly followed a spiral path but that became impractical as the amount of text seemed to grow. Until the top left hand corner is occupied I can't tell if Noor will be detached from the spiral remnant or not. Thats what makes it so interesting, the way the addition or removal of elements effects the whole.

This really caught my eye. I like the composition, and especially the way the photo was stylized. I would guess it was done with a posterization filter, but I'm curious about your mention of 'vector shapes and textured sections on top'. I haven't worked with photos much, but I'd like to be able to create a similar effect. Would you mind adding some details about how you achieved this look?

I've attached a line version to show the drawing and the original photo (of the scantily clad ladies for John).
The photo was basically faded with transparency and overdrawn with flat areas of colour added to cover the original with a little mehdi natural grain for texture. This then overlaid with areas of fractal transparency and more drawn detail.
It’s a combination of lucky accidents and repeated attempts to obtain the look I (we) wanted, not a precisely constructed thing, in fact exactly the opposite, like most drawings I do in fact.
(Revised version with Noor title different and final logo added).

looks good, but you could also read OOZ, I just did something, hope you don`t get mad, I know that some don`t like it when others "hijack" their
stuff, but I found it easier to show then to say it in words, so apologise me.
