We Are The Walking Dead (Mini-Series) FANedit

[jerryshadoe]

Your jokes made me laugh, so no worries

The trailer was pretty low on my priority list, so it's far from being finished and until I have it assembled I will not "spoil" anything by describing it here. I'm sure you'll want to change something too

For the cover art, I have NO idea what image to use for the front and have been working on assembling the back of the cover which is what I have so far, although that's not finished yet either as I have been testing numerous fonts/styles/images/etc. to see what works for the "theme" of the mini-series and this first film.

As far as your suggestion of the front cover, I really like that third (middle) image (although not for the first film, of course) but the others seems too much like the covers used for the actual BD-set of the tv-show and I want people to be able to tell the tv show apart from my mini-series.

Also, since the mini-series will be following Rick, Glenn, and Daryl (part of the reason that I went with "we are" instead of "I am") so I would like to incorporate them into the cover but behind Rick since he is the main focus. I am actually thinking of custom designing the front cover to reflect my idea as I haven't found anything online that matches my idea. Plus, if I custom design it, it is one of those extra "finishing touches" to make this a better looking release.

On topic of foreign language tracks: I am uploading the files to MEGA and will be sending you guys links in PMs within the next couple hours

Side-note: Apparently, this is now the most-viewed thread on this forum Thanx for the support!

What about using images from the comics for the covers?!?

[jerryshadoe]

Haven't thought of that... Got any suggestions?

[spoRv]

Nothing in particular, but it will be interesting to use them, to differentiate your version from the retail series.

[jerryshadoe]

Depending on whether I can manage to make the custom image that I have in mind, I might try that...
Actually, I'll see what I can find online right now

Most of the covers and art work I found so far doesn't work for this first film. funny because I found a couple for each of the next film that could work and then....

then I saw this cover and although it doesn't contain Glenn or Daryl(Daryl doesn't exist in comic)this image "caught my eye":

Or maybe a more complicated and maybe impossible option... to re-create comic covers with real images from the series. There is a technique to make photos appear as they were drawings.

Jerry, I know some of those posters have been used for the official BDs, but they are the best of what's available.

I found some amazing drawings, look:

That last one fascinates me.

Yes, I like them - whichever you'll choose, this it the way to go... IMHO of course!

[jerryshadoe]

Most of the images I am finding fir better with any season except this first one

I like the image I posted in my last post and really like the last image in Jedeitor's post. Hmmm... Decisions, decisions...

I have sent PMs out with links to foreign audio tracks and the English Hearing Impaired "template" file

Some ideas around the "Don't open, dead inside" drawing.

I don't like the second one because it seems to "blank" with all that white in the background.
The first one, on the other hand, I like, but I think it would be better if the lettering and grey background were a sepia tone instead of the grey. If it ain't too much trouble, would you mind trying that?
