Poster Design Brief

I need a poster design for a new musical called "Electric Dreams", based on the classic 1984 film of the same title.

The pictures I've attached were used to advertise the original film. They might help get an idea.

Hi designers!


Remember, there needs to be an 80's element to the poster design - after all "Electric Dreams - The Musical" is set in 1984.  

Looking forward to seeing your designs!

Cheers,

Drew

IMPORTANT UPDATE!! PLEASE READ!!


Dear Designers.

Thanks to everyone who have submitted a design so far, but nothing's quite hitting the mark, and I think it's because many don't remember the original film's storyline.  Here's what it's about:

"Dweebish architect Miles Harding (Lenny Von Dohlen) is hopelessly in love with neighboring musician Madeline (Virginia Madsen). He soon learns that Madeline already has an ardent suitor: Harding's own computer (voiced by Harold and Maude star Bud Cort)! When the electronic device, nicknamed Edgar, begins composing love songs dedicated to Madeline, Harding passes the tunes off as his own. At this point, the envious Edgar really goes to town, taking over all the electrical appliances in Harding's house-and dangerously meddling in its owner's life." - (from allmovie.com)

Please also look at the pictures I uploaded for more assistance.

Hope this helps you all!

Cheers,

Drew

Hi everyone!


Thanks for your designs - they're coming in thick and fast!

One comment I need to make: please DO NOT use any images or pictures from the original film or its design - I DO NOT own the copyright to these and subsequently cannot use them or any posters which have them on it.  This is an entirely new musical production, and while based on the original "Electric Dreams" film, it doesn't have ownership of graphics or artwork previously released for the film.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Drew
