I need a picture to be the "movie poster" for my animation, but I can't decide
which to use!
I've narrowed it down to these three. Please take a look and see which you think
is going to be the best looking and most eye catching. I have just "11 hours, 56
minutes, and 58 seconds" to decide! :)

Well, IMHO, both #1 and #3 are nice pictures but I don't think they
are material for a poster. They don't focus on anything that attracts
your attention. They look abit like illustrations from a scifi-book.
I'd like to see the spaceship trying to fly out of the image or something
like that. If I have to choose, I'd pick #3.
But they are nice.. :)

I like the "spacefleet" image best.

Actually number one is my favorite. It is dynamic, and it gives a good view
of the ship... But the clouds behind the ship are horrible. If you could
mend the clouds I would deffinitly use #1. If that is too much of a hastle
though I also like #2, it is very dramatic though also a bit monochromatic.
I am looking forward to seeing this animation. All the images and demos I
have seen so far are brillient! Good luck

#2 for overall composition: color and the ship's oriented in a way that
makes sense.
BUT the real question is what is your anim *about*?

i should go for #3
1 is not a very good possition for a poster imo and the clouds don't look
very good.
the second one is good but too bright/blue, it's hard to look at.
i prefer the last one, it's a good composition

1 or 3
1 if you can get better clouds and maybe move the ship off to the lower
right a hint.
3 if the planet gets some definition, and the other ships become more
distinct.
The landscape in 2 looks too much like nothing or a cartoon, and the
ship has too little contrast.

Thanks for the comments, it looks like I should go for number 3 (spacefleet).
To answer some of the other comments:
I kinda like the clouds in #1, they're meant to look kind of hand painted.
#2 doesn't look too good out of context (way too blue!) but I was considering it
because it's a fairly strong image from the animation.
And as for the subject of the animation, it's about a ship that travels through
space teleporting from location to location. So that's kind of hard to represent
in one picture.
I wasn't planning to modify the elements in these posters, because they're just
frames from the animation. Though I've finished the animation now and have a few
hours spare so I may try to create a new picture for the poster. :)

That's exactly the reason why it should make a good poster. It catches
the eye, much more then the other ones, and stands out more. But that's
just my layman's opinion 8)

Well I agree with you, but I could see equally good reasons for using the other
two pictures, that's why I was having trouble deciding between them!
I'm currently working on modifying #3 to produce a good image. Still 3 hours to
the deadline, no hurry... :)

Well, I spent 10 minutes playing with #3, and came up with this. It's a little
unoriginal, but it shows off the visual style of the animation quite well.
And now I'm going to submit! Hope you like the finished animation.

If it's not too late I'd like to vote for: Anything but #3.
I do like the effect of the clouds in #1 and the cartoony appearance of
#2 precisely because they are not like image #3. I think that while #3
probably looks very cool as part of the animation it is just too cliched
for the promo poster. Go with something stylised like #1 or #1, that
people won't expect and which will get them wondering what the animation
looks like.

Well you have a good point, but the weight of opinion is against you. i.e. if
everyone here who voted for #3 decides to look at the animation then I'll be
happy :)
I completely agree with your reasoning. The way I looked at it was like this, I
had the conventional shot #3, the unexpected and somewhat spontaneous shot #1,
and the just plain overpowering #2.
Though the main reason I've gone for #3 is because it best represents the
quality of the animation. The other two suggest that maybe the animation is
slightly more abstract or lacking in detail. It is a cliche, but it's a cliche
for a reason: it shows the kind of things you want on a poster, so everyone uses
that style. Still, I wouldn't have been able to choose between them without
putting it to a vote.
But anyway, it's all academic now. I'm afraid you were too late, I've already
submitted it.

Yeah, I kinda guessed I was too late when I refreshed and saw your other
post ahead of mine. Obviously the image likely to get you the most
viewers is the right one, and it sounds like that's #3. Good luck.

I like #2 for its anime look and feel. But then again, that only
makes sense if the movie is an anime.

Wonderful! I liked #3 but felt the composition wasn't quite right for a
poster. I actually played around with it in Photoshop to see if I could do
any better, but your final image is perfect.
Looking forward the the premier!

And just one last thing, I liked this view so much I've rendered a massive
(5200x7800) version for zazzle. So I thought I'd post a slightly reduced (but
still really big) version here.
The poster will be available in a few days, along with a bunch of other ones.
Shameless plug :)

It's much simpler than it looks:
sky_sphere{
//put the rest of the sky pigments here (before the sun)
pigment {
//sun
gradient y
scale 2
translate -1
Reorient_Trans( y, vnormalize(vSunPos)+z )
poly_wave 50
colour_map {
[0 rgbt 1]
[1 rgb <3,2,1>*1]
}
}
}
