film poster (process)

 this is the original image that i have decided to use for my final film poster as i have decided this one looks more suitable for my poster as looking at star models during my research shows that often focus on specific thing in a close up so i have decided that this image would be a perfect fit for conveying the aspects of a horror movie poster.

next i was choosing a text and placement for it . i have made the decision that the middle text is too cartoon and makes it look comical whereas the right and left text looks serious and creepy so that is the text i have decided on for my poster.


NEXT i though about what would be on a movie poster and looked at some examples which are below :

so i've decided that am going to use these below to put on my film trailer to make it look more like my chosen star models:

this is what my footer of my film poster looks like now :





this is what my final image looks like after adding my footer text :

my film trailer (progress draft)

below is my progress so far on my film trailer

magzine cover (process)

 

firstly i added my title for the magazine which is Empire, i have looked into the conventions my star model covers from previous Empire magazine cover and noticed that they focus on an important character, or actor in the film thats advertised on the cover for example for james bones Skyfall it has a photograph of Daniel Craig as he plays james bond as is the main the character.

 

after added the title i added my main characters image which is jess from my film trailer, her character is a teenager with mental disorder this can be seen by the way she is posed with her hands clawing at her face and hands covered in blood, i picked this pose to express her personality as character.

i have increased the brightness and contrast and added a sub heading to my image, the reason for doing this is that it adds a more intense and dramatic feel the cover and makes her look for deranged.

 i have now added a blood spatter background as it backs up the image complementing the horror feel to it, this not only makes the image look creeper it sits well with the text on top of it. i have also added my films title to the image.

 

and finally i rearraged the heading the sub headings as the star model i picked used this layout as you can see, aswell as adding blood spatter behind the film title to make it more psycho and intense.

THIS IS MY FINAL FRONT COVER FOR MY MAGAZINE:

my edited photos

my trailer poster first idea

i have used this type of image as i have seen through looking into horror film trailer posters them seem to use close ups and dark colours. this is the main reason i have decided on this image and colouring effect. as i believe it sets the genre for my film trailer perfectly.

now that image my main image i decided to put some silhouettes on grave stones as that is 

my second draft

i took into account the improvements that i needed to make and shown the rest of my media group. i have now go a new focus point on what i need to do to improve me film trailer.

i need to add titles and coming soon clips and titles as well as my film title at the end.

areas to improve on my piece so far

i personally think that i need some more clips to give my story more sense , as well as i know that i have not yet done the title for my film at the end and the date   so that is my next task along with getting some fresh footage.
