Hotel Rwanda Text


For this assignment, I used text to type the word strength. Strength represents the courage and bravery that Paul Rusesabagina had during the genocide crisis. I was inspired by the movie, and the picture that I placed over the text. I think this image is one of the most powerful screenshots of the movie. It shows the people's faith despite the fact that they were just abandoned by the UN. Next time, I would figure out how to make the text look more clean and sharp. I just selected and deleted parts around the text, but that was tedious and took a long time. However, I am satisfied with this work.

Hotel Rwanda Movie Poster

This is my Hotel Rwanda movie poster. I cut out the two main characters from another picture and added a different background. Then I faded in some supporting characters and added text. I was inspired by some of the other movie posters I saw online. I am satisfied with this work. Next time, I would use a layer mask rather than selecting and deleting parts of the background.
