Movie Posters

As part of the advertising campaign made up of our main production and ancillary tasks, I have created one of the initial posters first attracting attention to our film. This poster is purposelly basic, including very little information and drawing in the audience to visit the website and find out more about the film itself. In our group, we all chose separate images to focus on so that our posters would not be too similar and would appeal to different audiences.


The image that I chose to focus on was that of the villain. He is not included so much in our teaser trailer, but to create cohesion he is wearing the same clothing, and using PaintShop Pro Photo X3, I have also dimmed the picture to create a darker feel to it. The white backed writing, in the cohesive 'American Typewriter' font shows the idea of text on ripped paper which I thought was fitting to our storyline and newspapers/police reports that we have looked into.


I have also incorporated the image of the scarf at the bottom of the poster. This brings in some of the key red colour that has been a huge focus throughout our production, as well as creating a sense of enigma and raising questions for all audiences.


Here is my final poster design:
