Brief : Read script, I was able to make on-set observations in my role as Art Director, I utilised the on-set photographer throughout the shooting schedule, creating and implementing poster concepts on the fly.
Medium : Digital : Official One Sheet poster version of DVD Cover art for the Australian release of Bad Behaviour. One of many Bad Behaviour poster concepts created in Adobe Photoshop 2011-12 a.d
Design Notes : BAD BEHAVIOUR was written and directed by Joseph Sims and produced by Kris Maric, Craig A Kocinski and Steven Caldwell. The film won 6 awards at the 2011 Melbourne Underground Film Festival and delivered its international premiere to packed out audiences at Cinequest, a major North American film festival in California, USA. BAD BEHAVIOUR was picked up by Ken DuBow's Opus Distribution and had its first market screening at the Cannes Film Market where Dubow announced that he closed a deal for BAD BEHAVIOUR with Donau Films in Germany. This One Sheet Feature Film Poster promotes the Aussie 'Serial Killer Thriller' , BAD BEHAVIOUR, featuring John Jarratt as Senior Constable Richard 'Ricky' Bartlett staring down Lindsay Farris' eloquently evil Peterson. Jarratt has recently been in the US filming Quentin Tarantino's DJANGO UNCHAINED alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx and Christoph Waltz.. Before filming Bad Behaviour, John had appeared in ROGUE, a story based loosely on a 70's era giant croc named sweetheart (being director Greg McLean’s ode to Australia's Northern Territory tourist bureau and big budget feature follow-up to John's most recognized role in the 2005 inde horror flick WOLF CREEK). Previously he featured in THE FINAL WINTER; an Australian production about the seedy side of footy and had a role in AUSTRALIA, Baz Luhrmann’s epic type feature thingy starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman dousing himself with a bucket of water. A veteran of thirty years in the industry, John’s credits include Peter Weir's eerie classic PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK, SUMMER CITY, THE ODD ANGRY SHOT, WE OF THE NEVER NEVER, NEXT OF KIN, DARK AGES and ALL MEN ARE LIARS which earned him a Best Actor nomination at the AFI awards. His Television credits are numerous, from his Logie award-winning performance as Ned Kelly in THE LAST OUTLAW, to other leading roles in FIELDS OF FIRE trilogy for which he received an AFI nomination for Best Actor. Director Joseph Sims explains the effect that nabbing the renowned Aussie actor for a role in Bad Behaviour had upon his production. "I really didn't know where we stood in terms of financing and eventual size of the production until the day I heard John had signed on. Almost immediately after Dwaine [Stevenson] (Gabriel) signed on... With their names we were able to go nuts - we had access to a number of high profile people we wouldn't normally have had access to." The film also stars TV and radio personality Jean Kittson (Hating Allison Ashley, let the blood run free, the Big Gig - "yeah!") and Roger Ward (Mad Max).
