Do you mean the one in the infobox? If so, I used Photoshop.

First, I got rid of the text reading "The Last Jedi" by using the Patch Tool, which can be found by right-clicking on the seventh tool down the left-hand sidebar. I also used this to remove the release date in the bottom-left corner.

After the text was gone, I went to "Image" on the navbar, selected "Adjustments," and then clicked on "Hue and Saturation." Because I wanted the majority of the poster to be of a blue hue, I manoeuvred the “Hue” bar to its extremity, +180, but if you are in search of a different colour, adjust it to your heart’s content. (NOTE: It would be a good idea to remember the exact number you adjusted the hue to, as it will be necessary in completing your image) When this was done, the whole image was of a blue hue, including Kylo Ren’s face which was not desirable. Luckily, the only flesh in the image was Kylo’s face which made the next step very simple.

Using the Lasso Tool, I carefully outlined Kylo’s hair and face, tracing the line in which his hair and face meet his clothing. (If his hair or face is only touching the white background, you can afford to be messy with the tracing ONLY at those stages) With his hair and face outlined, I returned to the “Hue and Saturation” menu and cranked it to its extremity once again, (+180) returning only his face and hair to its natural state prior to the editing. I am unsure of what number those who chose a different colour would have to slide to, but I assume it would either be the opposite sign of whatever number they initially chose. (e.g. If +77 was your initial hue adjustment, then you would revert it by using -77) This may or may not be true, as I have not tested it.

In terms of adding text, I go to various font websites. They usually have sample text spaces where you can type in whatever to view what it would look like in that particular font. This is where you can right click, open the image in a new tab, and save it to your desktop. If you want the font to be white, I recommend saving it black and inverting it in Photoshop yourself. (Ctrl + I)

Open this .gif file in Photoshop, copy it, and paste it into the poster file. If the text is either too big or too small, change the size of the POSTER. (Ctrl + Alt + I) When doing so, a new menu will show up. Make sure the chain symbol has been selected before altering any numbers, and I like to keep the numbers in the unit of pixels. If the text is too big, make the poster bigger; if the text is too small, make the poster smaller. Admittedly, this stage is like trial and error until you find the right size, but eventually you will be satisfied.

Once you have the right proportions for your poster and, by extension, your text, make sure you have selected the layer your text is on to position it in a particular spot on the page. When it is in the spot you envisioned, save the file as both a Photoshop Document (in case you need to make any adjustments) and an image file of your choice.

If there’s any stage here that you need clarification on, please don’t hesitate to ask.
