Poster Design Brief

We are looking for a poster design for what amounts to a 20 x 30 MOVIE POSTER - The time period of this story is just before and after the United States Civil War - So think between 1860 and 1865 - Our story centers around a teen living in New York who runs off to join the Union Army (North - Blue) and engages in various battles vs the Confederate Army (South - Grey) - We would like something that brings in all these elements PLUS Abraham Lincoln. The mini-series is based on the journal/letters of the main character so maybe that can be included on the poster as well.

We want to see which designer can be bold and creative - Questions??? Just ask and we will guide you! At the bottom of the poster we need:

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: We have had several very good designs - We want designers to know that this concept art is being presented to HBO for consideration for a mini-series - Attention to detail is critical - As stated, we have had some good submissions but want to ensure we have the best concept that meets our needs and that will WOW some very picky people - Exclusive Partnership for more artwork with producers of the series is a strong possibility for the winner. Our next investor's meeting is April 22nd, and we will be making a decision on which design is our winner - Good luck to all - Great job so far!
