Trying to do a poster for a movie i like. I know it doesn't look good, but don't know why. What is missing? How can I improve it?

The red texture on the title looks low quality and gives a bad contrast to the background. I think it would be better with a flat red font.

–The proportions of the poster seem... too tall. Was it imposed?
– It does not tell a story and does not evoke a reaction.
– The title is kinda hidden, at the same time it does not looks to me that it wanted to be hidden. It feels that you placed there because it was the spot that you had left. It also makes it look like is "floating", it is not resting in no imaginary rule(s).
– The tree branches is the back are a mess. I don't really know what I want there, but I don't like how it is now.


Recommendations:
– Take a look on some Pedro Panetto videos about poster composition. They are in pt-br.
–I like the collage feeling, but you need to have some rules of composition. Take a look in the book Grid by Thimoty Samara. Panetto will help you better if you have a deadline.
–Don't get me wrong, it is good as it is now as art, but the title is really lost and the art overall should tell more about the short film. This could be done in the title, the color, a detail on a tomato, e detail in the background, etc, you do not need to change everything.

you have no sense of composition

Yeah I had to upscale te texture and it lost quality. I did it because I wasnt liking the flat red, but it might be better, thanks

I didn't want to hid the title at all
> It feels that you placed there because it was the spot that you had left
thats exactly why I did it hahhaha, but yes i struggle a lot with composition just like >>459531 said, and didn't know where to put it
Oh, and this is not a job, I am doing it just for fun and to try to get better at design in general, so no deadline or requests
Thanks a lot for all of your hints man, really, I didn't expect to get such a detailed help. I will look into all of your recommendantions, study and will comeback with the next result.
Btw, cê é brasileiro?

>Btw, cê é brasileiro?
Yes. That's why I recommended (and know) Pedro Panetto, kek. I will still talk in english so others anon can understand what we are saying without the need to translate it.

As you are studying it is a good start. I can see that you know your way around with the tools, but still need to develop the project skills, composition, how to tell a story with a single image, etc. Keep in mind that everything in a (good) poster should have a purpose to be there (i am talking about the title that was a afterthought of your part).
All things considered, good job! Keep it up!

I know you're going for an aesthetic, but the masking on the tomatoes is a bit janky, and the difference in noise pattern resolution all over the poster is very jarring, specially noticeable with the pig (the transparent stroke around the jagged edges is a bit strange and doesn't really fit) and the blurrier noise of the "Ilha das Flores" font. I feel like it would make more sense for you to start with non-noisy or less noisy images, and reapply the noise yourself. Might fuck around and do a mockup of this myself if I find the original images.

What's with the photo of a pig? You have a ilustration of tomatoes, why smack a pig there and not an illustration of a pig?
That's one.
Also, since the ilustration has no hard shadows, the pig should also not have the hard shadows. Should be evenly lit.
Two.
You made hard, sharp, rough edges instead of a nice smooth edges. Like see the cut between (again) the pig and the tomato? Is just a line. Put some fethering/bluring/erase it a bit
Three
The silhuete in the background is pulling the focus away from the foreground
Four
The background is just boring IMO put some texture and put a nuce shadow/darkening around the edges coming from the tomatoes
Five
The text, all of it. Change it. The red is too harsh, the font choice is boring, the location is awful, it looks like is on top of the design, (because the bg pulls the focus) which it isn't and (again) the harsh vector lines hurt to see.
Maybe you should just pay an illustrator or painter to make it for you. I think you need a understanding or colors and composition to so it. Like, me saying what's wrong won't make you understand it.

My friend's mother produced this movie.
Tanto que eu assisti ele no cinema com minha turma da escola.
