Teaser Poster Choices

3. Teaser Poster Decision #1
I like the silhouette look that my actor adds against the colour of the
sky. This picture will be edited down into portrait view to suit the
conventional poster look.
I like the themes that this picture portrays as he walks off into the
distance but it seems somewhat depressing and the colour doesn’t
seem as rich as it could be.

4. Teaser Poster Decision #2
To start off with, I personally love the vibrant colour within this poster and I
think it would look great as a landscape orientated teaser poster.
The ground in which the protagonist is standing looks dirty and unappealing to
an audience. If the picture was edited and the main character (as well as the
ground) was silhouetted then it could work as a teaser poster as the colour of
the sky attracts the audiences attention.

5. Teaser Poster #3
If this picture was edited down to a portrait orientated poster then I
believe that it could work as a teaser poster. The colour of the sky
compared to teaser poster #2 isn`t as vibrant but I believe that it would
could be a suitable candidate for the teaser poster.

6. Final Decision for my Teaser Poster
All three final pictures are great candidates for my teaser poster, they all
contain great qualities but also lack in certain qualities such as lighting,
location and overall look.
The themes of my adventure trailer needs to be represented within my
poster otherwise audiences will get the wrong idea when observing my teaser
poster.
From an editing standpoint I believe that I could improve all three pictures
but the decision has to come down to a final one.
The theme of the poster needs to correspond with the themes of my teaser
trailer which creates a sense of freedom, ambition and belonging.
That is why I have chosen my finial picture that will be edited to fit the
convention of a professional teaser poster look.
The silhouette of the protagonist
mixed with the landscape and sky
within this poster creates the
themes that I am looking for and
personally I really like the look of
this.
