Waiting For Phoenix

    Film poster inspired by the heroic rescue of the 33 Chilean miners.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------

    Note: Some people have mentioned that the capsule was called the "Fenix". Fenix is the Spanish form of Phoenix, and I chose Phoenix because it would make more sense to an English-speaking audience. However, if I do make a Spanish version of this I would use Fenix. Or, as @solaana suggested, "Los 33".

    Note #2: It's also been pointed out that the Chilean flag is red, blue, and white. I totally understand that, but I designed the flag in there to fit in with the colour scheme, and be more subtle than it would in brighter tones.

      Got here via this post - and I was thinking about this last night and figured they'd probably call the movie (if, like in my dreams, a S. American outfit were in charge of writing/filming/casting, etc., rather than Hollywood) "Los 33". But this is a beautiful poster, and I love the way you aged it to make it look like it's from the 70s or something.

      @solaana: I really like that title. If I get to it, I might make a Spanish version using that. Thanks for the comments!

      Nice work!
      I've to say just two things... About the chilean flag (it's white like @diegomarin said) and it's 69 days (not 68).
      I'm gonna link this poster in my movie's page vemoscine.com

      We are Storycasting.com, the web's premier fantasy-casting site. We'd like to provide a slot on our site so people can 'fantasy cast' the maybe-someday movie, but we need a title. It especially should be something that people can find easily. "Waiting for Phoenix" is a great title as well. I've seen the talk about "Los 33", and we might use that. Any other thoughts on titling?
