How to make a documentary film festival poster

Take lots of random shots for the blog. Drink some wine.
Take the camera off the tripod and forget to adjust the shutter setting.
Take a picture of a picture.
Choose your best shots.
Rework the best one in photoshop to the desired effect, I call this effect 'old school'.
Import the image into InDesign, mirror the festival details on the right-hand side of the image in a contemporary typographical style for juxtaposition and ease of legibility.
Design 2 more options for fun, because you enjoy it so much. Enter your submissions and wait patiently for the reply. Find out that you were…
Option 1: Successful, jump for joy while screaming like a little girl, prepare yourself for the hard graft over the next couple of weeks to get the remaining designs/elements together.
Option 2: Unsuccessful, do something opposite to jumping for joy while screaming like a little girl, pull yourself towards yourself and get back to work looking for work.
Best practice to keep y'all informed when I say I will, whoever it may be, even if it's just Ida's ma out in Sweden (miss you). Peeps, I know I wrote I would let you know, but we're still waiting ourselves... so hopefully I'll have the option down for you tomorrow!
...and the option is sadly number 2. Onwards and upwards we say!
Our condensed Mini portfolio
Our portfolio is ready, and we think it's a beauty! We ended up producing it as an A3 landscape book, in grey wibalin with our logo de-bossed in white on the front cover. The book was meticulously hand-crafted by Peter the bookbinder (a gentleman with over 30 years in the business). We'll make sure to take some pics of it soon. In the meantime, our condensed Mini portfolio can be found on issuu.
Homemade bread
We really love to make our own bread. It's wonderful to see how something as simple as a piece of bread, still warm with melted butter, can make Karl so happy, like a child again.
