My Final Poster

My Final Poster

When thinking about my final poster I wanted to make it original, and photoshop it into  soemthing better with more creativity. I wanted my poster to be quite dark but with an eerry feel to it a kind of mystery to it to make people think and to be intregued. To do this used photoshop using the 'smudge tool' and to make her look more gaunt as if she hasn't slept and the feel of being mentally unstable. I took pictures when I was filming to make it more continuous and for my project to have continuity throughout it and also to set the scene in the location.

 






Here I zoomed in on the picture and used the smudge tool using mostlythe black to spread more around the eyes. I also mixed the beigey colour into the black so it looked more natural and looked more like make-up instead of photoshop as only a thin layer of black was used around the eyes. I really wanted to make her face look airbrushed and to have a glow to it, however because of the lighting was a yellow colour it made this easier to make her skin radiant.


Below are three pictures I photoshopped and the three I'm considering for my final poster.


THE PROCESS...





Above is my final poster, I think it has worked really well as the image I photoshopped looks really effective as it created the mystery of what the film is about. I also think that it is intrigueing the way that the title of the film is 'Insanity' it makes you think what is making her go insane. I think it is good for the audience to interpret it the way the want as it is them who will want to watch the film. The dark colours set the tone of the eerie thriller genre, also I love that on he phone she is holding there is a picture of her face it's quite strange but it makes you question things and is in a way a rhetorical question; why is her face on the phone? who took it?. I think my poster also follows the typical conventions of a film poster. As the four lines at the bottom are normally at the bottom of the film poster, also the logo I made of the 'Pink Flamingo Studios' is a typical convention. Also the 'From the director of unknown' text shows contuinuity. Also the film critic comments on the side, to show
