Process and Production Typography

This is my initial idea for the type for my poster, I like the font but I think the layout is too spaced out and isn't as bold as I'd like it too be. 

This is the second version of my type and I think it works slightly better than the first though it could still be improved. I think I definitely refer the tagline from this one as well it definitely presents the themes of the book better than the first. though i'm not sure about having the author's name on one side and the date on the other.

This is a much more developed version of my type and in my opinion much better. I changed the way the main title worked by enlarging the "gods" type and putting it under the "american" type, I think it works much better this way and is much more bold. I also added some of the standard tropes you'd see on a film or tv series poster such as the HBO logo and the R-rated logo ( I added this rather than a uk age rating because the poster is geared towards an American audience as HBO is an American TV network.) I also added the names of the actors in the same font as most standard film posters use. I kept the type on this version much tighter and compact and I think t works much better than the other two versions as the smaller text serves to emphasise the "American Gods" title
