The document outlines a student's initial film and media production (FMP) idea of creating a trailer, poster, billboards, and possibly a magazine about a murder mystery. The student wants to focus on developing their graphic design skills for their second year FMP project. They aim to achieve a Merit rating after being displeased with their first year results. They take inspiration from the 2017 film IT's trailer and posters for how they were presented and edited. The student wants their audience to feel intrigued but also confused by the mystery, as well as scared, to mirror how murder mystery genres tend to be scary and horrifying at times. The overall tone and mood of the project will be dark colors, mainly red, to symbol
