film is very useful as the film is able to expand its target audience and gain to
new fans aside their niche audience.

10. Here is one of the first sketches for our films poster. We were considering to have a
still from the film of Delilah so that it gives an idea of what film will involve i.e.
horror .
11. If you look closely you should be able to see a girl whispering into another girls ear
with a surprised expression on her face. We thought this would be a good idea
because as the female protagonist is coming back to tell her sister their foster
parents deep dark secret it conforms to the idea of what we believe the revilement
of a secret looks like. We also decided to have the Title ‘Avenge Me’ in between to
make it seem that she's coming back from the dead telling her sister to avenge her
death.
12. • We also would like to use social networks to
promote our film .This could be done by
creating our own Facebook page and Twitter
account to gain a larger audience. By using
these popular networks it becomes an
alternative cheaper marketing approach.
