Promotional Poster for an Up Coming Show

This is a promotional ad campaign poster (13x19 inch) that I created for an up coming show for AARP Foundation. This will be my 6th year performing for this client. The red outline was deliberate attempt to get the viewer to hallucinate seeing blood without actually putting blood in the shot (which would be too graphic for some viewers). This image is from one of my effects that uses styrofoam cups and a spike. The spike is hidden under a cup and an audience member rearranges the cups with my back turned (they do this with their own back to the audience so that the audience cannot tell where the spike is either) so that I cannot see where the spike ends up. Then I let THEM decided which cup I should smash last. It's absolutely terrifying (even to me)! :shock:

Oh my, Mark, you are scaring me. I hope this trick is not as dangerous as it sounds. Sending you good wishes... Neat poster, by the way! Very creative and really gets the message across.
