Post Production - Creation of Social Media Post


I drew inspiration for my background from the poster of the movie "The Fault in Our Stars", particularly its soft, intimate composition. The way the two characters lie close together on the grass, framed in a calm and natural setting, creates a strong sense of emotional connection and quiet romance. I was especially influenced by the gentle color palette and the top-down perspective, which makes the moment feel personal and almost private.

In my own design, I aimed to recreate this feeling by placing my characters in a similar relaxed position, surrounded by nature, while adding a touch of fantasy through glowing elements.

In Clip Studio Paint, I constructed my background illustration using 18 layers to maintain a non-destructive workflow and allow precise control over each visual element. I organised layers into groups such as line art, base colours, shading, highlights, and effects, which improved efficiency and editing flexibility. For the line work, I used the mechanical pencil brush to create clean, textured outlines with slight pressure sensitivity, giving the artwork a natural hand-drawn quality.








In my poster, I chose a script-style font for the title “Between Us” because I wanted it to feel soft, romantic, and emotional. The flowing, cursive look helps show the connection between the two characters and matches the gentle mood of the scene. I also used a golden colour for the title so it stands out from the green background and gives a slight magical glow, which fits the fantasy element of my film.

For the text “A film by SDJ Studios,” I used a simpler and more readable font to keep it clean and professional. I didn’t want it to take attention away from the main title, but still be clear to read. I think using these two different font styles works well because the title adds emotion and style, while the smaller text keeps the overall design balanced and easy to understand.
