Poster Design Brief

I need a movie poster FRONT AND BACK for a movie that does not exist yet. It is a horror comedy that takes place in the 1800s. I want to see a bunch of evil looking british businessmen from the 1800s sitting at a board room table under the table legs being squeezed is an Indian person and a Chinese person. For inspiration look at the Bette Midler movie poster called Outrageous Fortune (for the way the Indian and Chinese character's expression should look like) as well as the following:
The British flag background of this: http://www.flicks.co.nz/movie/austin-powers-international-man-of-mystery/poster/
And the boardroom should look like this but with ancient looking british twits: http://www.dreamstime.com/royalty-free-stock-photos-business-last-supper-image26489588 (I have enclosed it).

The back of the poster will be the same exact image but the text will be in Chinese. I will have the Chinese lettering for you once the english version is done.

Target Market(s)

I am using this to pitch my television series idea, it is about the crazy adventures of the British East India company and the atrocities they committed against the Indians and Chinese. For examples of what they did, read:

The poster size should be A4 size.

Nice to have

• I like the colouring and look and feel of the enclosed Watercolor of BEI. It would be nice to have the boardroom look/feel color look like this water color.
• Make the boardroom look crazy, there should be a head of an elephant on the wall, a rhino, and even a pygmy. Two giant elephant tusks. dark wood. Make the facial expressions and characters look like a political caricature all posed like the "Last Supper" Examples of political parody is enclosed as the After Dinner in the captains cabin poster (the colours here are too muted):

Should not have

• this is a comedy about an outrageous company that got away with outrageous things. Make it funny, not serious. DO NOT make the Chinese person or Indian person look offensive. The indian can be in a turban and the Chinese person in Chinese attire.
