Old-school illustration with the title 'Nancy Noble Film Poster'

Nancy Noble Film Poster

The Keywords: Vintage/Bold Poster Ratio: 27x40 inches Font Used: 1. Acumin Variable Concepts 2. Bebas Neue The idea for this poster is to make it look like a movie poster from 1950-1960. I edited the source of the photo in such a way that the image looks like an animation with colors that aren't too flashy and added a little noise effect to give it a more old school impression. The title of the film uses a san serif font with a fake 3d effect and gradient colors to make it stand out more.
