Film Titles - Irish Film School
The brief was to design Film Titles and a Promotional Poster for a short film created by Final Year students in Film Studies at IADT. The “West Kerry Cowboy” written and directed by Cian O'Connor is a short comedy-drama about masculinity and grief. Big Mac is a bear of a man whose interests include football, dancing and wearing his dead mother’s clothes. The film titles were created with the theme of reflection and escapism, with the young man looking closely at his mother’s jewellery, cosmetics and clothes. The aesthetic is 70s glamour and shiny gold light-reflective surfaces. The typography was created with 100 year old wooden letterpress poster letters at the National Print Museum in Dublin. A printed book with details of the film was created for the director to distribute at Film Festivals. An online strategy was devised to promote the film on social media.
