Hey all. For my next project I've put together an original cover rather than use a template. I have this on blu ray on order but while I waited I thought that the back on the 2 disc DVD version was cool with a kinda old page or film stock look but the front has a variant of the original poster. So with that in mind I thought of doing the whole cover like that.

Good start with this m8.
I'd reco changing the colour of the credit block, green just doesn't look right IMO. Also the screens have like a semi border, I'd either go with a full one or lose that what you've got.
On the front I think you should lose the pic of the 65th Anniversary and just go with text, maybe black at something like 70-75% opacity. I'd also reduce the font size for the actor's names and go with a similar sort of colour and opacity for them.
Hope this helps :)

Thanks for that, all. I'll make the changes when I get a chance. I'm working on another cover which I'll show here soon as.

When you say the pic of the 65th anni do you mean the picture of Errol and Olivia or the red banner underneath the 65th text?
Something like this?
