When starting to think about the design and layout I wanted my poster about my cultural text 'Feminism in Star Wars: The Force Awakens' to have I instantly knew two things I wanted it to have:
1) A relatively simple, minimalistic design that wouldn't distract too much from the content while still provoking interest.
2) A picture of Rey since she was my main focus in my analysis.
A quick Google image search left me with two pictures I wanted to include.

I experimented with a few things until I had two relatively similar but different drafts.
Both include the same photo of Rey and the title, have a black background, colour scheme, etc. but in the end it all came down on how I wanted it to look.
I asked myself: Do I want it to look like the Action Sci-Fi film it is or do I want to focus on my analysis of the female and use more female fonts?
I chose the ladder since I felt it agreed more with Rey's character.
