A poster designed by Mike West for Byrdman Group and Josh Relic Pictures, "Expired." The background is dark and textured with a distressed, grungy film effect. The top text reads "BYRDMAN GROUP AND JOSH RELIC PICTURES." The title "EXPIRED" is in large, bold, white capital letters in the center. Below the title, it announces "PREMIERES AUGUST 23RD & 24TH, 2025 AT THE GUILD CINEMA." This is followed by a list of the cast and crew: STEVEN RAY BYRD, JOHN CHRISTIAN LOVE, JAY BYRD, DANIELLE MCCANTS, PARIS MAESE, MICHAEL DEMKO, MAURICE GREEN, DENNY SHOOPMAN, and MICHAEL PRIDHAM. At the bottom, a line states "THIS FILM WAS MADE FOR THE 48 HOUR FILM PROJECT - ALBUQUERQUE" with the website "48hourfilm.com/albuquerque" below it. Logos for "Byrdman Group," "Josh Relic Pictures, "The 48 Hour Film Project," and the "Guild Cinema" are at the very bottom of the poster.

Driving down an Illinois country road, vibrant colors from the sunset splash across wispy clouds along the horizon. In the night sky above, a crescent moon illuminates the full shape of the moon, Mars striking atop nearby.

Ghostly footsteps follow a young child, running jubilantly into a bright white void. In the background appears to be flames erupting from a molten lava lake.

A pencil sketch of a goth, a skater, a raver, and a punk staring at a metalhead, who's fallen to his knees doing an air-guitar solo. They're looking at him like he's some kind of freak.

HuRock!
