And on that bombshell, the poster was finished.
It wasnt without a struggle though. After redoing my poster twice only to realise i had started it as a HTML5 instead of Actionscript, i was able to finish the poster to a satisfactory standard.
Given my range of skills, i felt i did the best i could given the various obstacles i faced during the process, mainly as i didn't realise that it was HTML5 so most of the things i learned, i couldn't apply to it correctly. I would have liked to have made it more detailed which would include embedded videos and more sounds but after attempting and failing, i felt i best leave it in a good, functional state considering the technical difficulty i had for the past couple of weeks. It's safe to say, i didn't want to risk it.
Making my poster on Photoshop first was extremely helpful. I was able to save each piece individually and apply it to Animate when it was needed without much fuss. Because of my previous research, i was able to accurately depict a 70's theme with more of a modern style but i would have loved more time to play around with various colours and styles before settling on one.
To summarise, i am happy with the poster but would have like the time to add more detail and make it more appealing to underground customers. I started off strong but the technical issue set me back to a point where i didn't have the time to experiment with different colour, sounds and video.
