To make sure that the billing block is in the correct layout, I have been doing some research into the shaping, format and additional information that would need to be included in a billing block.
Below I have found an example of the ideal sizing of the font in which the size of the billing block needs to be 25% of the size of the title of the poster. The font also needs to be different from that of the title, It needs to be more compact and less eligible to read, but still readable.

The billing block would either come in three different styles of line amounts for the block. Either three, four or nine. Depending on how much there is needed to be included in the block or even how the creators of the film want the appearance of the block to get across to the audience.
The variation of lines can also have an impact on the nature of the genre of the films and the style of the format of the font type.
I am currently creating the billing block in Adobe Photoshop and I am following an example of the order of titles to occur on the poster.
The names to include in this are the production company, which is currently Universal Pictures but it may change to another one. Voice talents, I have decided to include four names for this as there is no typical amount to include in the billing block and as there are two main people featured in the trailer I thought adding a couple of extra names will be appropriate to use. Followed by the music by and costumes designed. Then it will also include the screenplay writer, editors, producer and finishing of with the director. Also at the bottom of the billing board, it will include the release date of the film/ coming soon featured centered with the production company logo placed bottom far left of the poster so that it adheres to typical conventions of the billing block for films and there posters.
I have spent the majority of today's lesson working on the billing block for the poster and has taken longer than expected to do so but the block is almost there.
