2. I first of all using Photoshop, using the magic tool highlighted the image of the girl on the floor and moved her onto a black background as this is more eerie and is associated with the horror genre.
3. I then used photoscape which I had downloaded from the internet for free. I applied a sepia antique style effect which I thought would work well as the titles at the beginning describe girls from 1994 going missing so this could be an old photo. The close up of the screaming face was also meant to look as though she was being tortured and about to be dragged backwards.
4. I then added a tint of green to the picture to make it look like it was being filmed in darkness or at night time to add to the creepy atmosphere.
5. Using the same typography that was in my trailer I typed up the beginning sequence of my movie with the writing. I made the masthead by capturing the flicker of the tv on the final titles on the trailer and saving it as a picture. To create the record button, I changed the font and then added a red circle to look at though it is hand held and as though you are not meant to have seen this footage conveying the stereotypical horror plot. To get the professional bottom half I used steeltongs font which I had downloaded from the internet and made the bottom, which also allowed me to insert the symbols.
6. I decided to include all the writing which appears in the trailer to appear at the top of the poster. I also made it write across the whole poster rather than just being positioned to the right hand side. I also included in the right hand corner my snip productions logo as this is conventional for the logo to appear. I also added a tag line of don’t watch it alone, which is a play on words with the title, its ironic because the girls in the plot at alone and the audience won’t want to watch it alone.
7. After getting some initial feedback they said it would better with the writing at the top to go together across the page and only to have until now by itself so that it draws your eyes into it. I added a drop shadow to the tag line and made the picture bigger so that it complied with the 2/3 rule.
