Construction: Dropping Paper
My group and I were inspired by a scene in the concert documentary, Don't Look Back when Bob Dylan is shown dropping cue cards whilst his song, Subterranean Homesick Blues is played in the background. If we decide to include a scene similar, we will interpret it to convey Eve's needs in order for her to achieve gratification but is unable to receive due to her limited wealth.

Construction: Adobe InDesign
In todays lesson I used Adobe InDesign software and experimented with different features it offered. This allowed me to construct a stronger understanding on the way the program works and what options it allows me to use in order to achieve the poster I'd hope for. The image below is a screenshot of the progress I made during the lesson; although it isn't appealing, it was my first attempt on InDesign and was a blank document that enabled me the opportunity to experiment.

Research: Poster
In today's lesson I studied and analysed posters such as, The Book of Eli and Edge of Darkness. With help from my group, I worked on the institutional information displayed at the bottom of the poster, it includes the names that are credited to the making of my film, Welcome to Eden. Towards the end of the lesson I drafted my first idea for the composition and framing of my poster.

Construction: Props (Room To Rent Poster)
The idea behind this poster is advertisement by the character, Ular Kadir who owns this monstrosity and is renting out a room for someone. The room is rented by Adam & Eve who struggle to survive financially and the cost is just about within their budget. However, the costs are considerably low to build the idea that Ular Kadir is a lonely and desperate character. The poster was created in great detail via Photoshop.

Character Profile: Eve
Eve is the girlfriend of Adam, and alongside Adam lives as the room tenant of the house owned by Ular. Eve is intrigued and endulged by Ular's behaviour, he tempts her and is the reason for the downfall in her relationship with Adam. She is a modern representation of Eve from the Genesis story from the Bible of 'Adam & Eve'. Similarly with Adam, Eve is made to look indigent and beggarly which is the reason for her being tempted by Ular. The huge contrast between Eve and Ular will make the audience suspect an underlying desire for her to try something more affluent and fruitful.
Character Profile: Adam
Adam is an impecunious and underprivileged character which contrasts with Ular Kadir's prosperity lavishness. Adam is usually seen wearing downmarket clothing that represent and emphasise his deprived character. However, Adam is a motivated and driven by the desires of Eve and will do absolutely anything to fulfill her needs. I ensured Adam was a character that was created so that a male audience were able to relate to him through ways of normality and behaviour. Adam has very few privileges in his life but only cares about his once perfect relationship with Eve.
