Making fake movie posters

Hey H/A, I need to make several fake movie posters for a friend. I was wondering if there are any helpful templates or something I could use.

I especially need things like the font for the small print/credits at the bottom, big MPAA rating system images, etc. Things of that nature.

Thank you.

    For the logos and ratings, this site has all you'll ever need and more.

    You'll need Photoshop or Illustrator to open the files, though, unless you've got another program that can handle 'em. A quick search for "rating
    " brings up a variety of things I think would be useful. Even better, since they're vectorized, you can resize them to any size you need with no ill effects on the image.

    Dafont.com also has a lot of movie title fonts in their TV and Movie section. Also check out the font Steeltongs for doing the credits at the bottom of the poster.

    Wikipedia appear to have transparent Gifs of the MPAA logos here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:MPAA_logos - although if you can get them as vectors that would be handier as Taximes says.

    As for layout, just grab all that stuff and a movie poster and copy the poster's layout for placing credits and logos.
