They were young. They knew nothing of death. But death knew plenty about them. He put on his finest clothes and came out to meet them...

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Ah, Posty, so we meet again...I see that I gave this a 6 in voting because I too see Death's Pretty Colours, in an overall pleasing photo of backlit fall leaves. So technically, yes, you did meet the challenge description and like most entrants, used the initials DPC to construct your film title. All fine and dandy, though I do wish that oof limb wasn't there approx halfway up - I find it distracting and it serves no purpose but to cut off the nice downward flow of the leaves.

But what I didn't see was a serious attempt to meet the challenge criteria of making this a poster suitable for a cinema poster, which is meant to entice the public into parting with their hard-earned $$. So in addition to a very powerful image, you need to reel them in with the name of the film, perhaps a handful of credits (ie 'Directed by M. Knight Shyamalan', 'starring Brangelina', studio affiliates etc. I noticed that many entries even had the ratings box.

Hope this helps,

Susan
