Construction and Development:Construction of my Poster

- Imogen Law

I used Photoshop to create my poster. Audience feedback has shown me that my Poster is effective as it does not give too much of the film away. In addition to this I have learnt that my audience feedback has showed me that my final poster is professional.

The first thing I added for the creation of my poster was the picture, I then added some pictures of a dark wood and put them in the background to make the picture look darker.

I added more of a misty picture so that the picture in the background would be covered up more, this is because there was fences in the background. In addition to this I wanted to recreate the misty look that appears in the Friday the 13th poster that my poster is based on.

The next step I took in the development of my poster was I added a picture I have previously taken and embedded it into the background, I did this to create more effect. I also did this so that my two main character were on my front cover of my magazine and my poster. In addition to this, I believe that this would make the audience question why the character there and would draw them in more.

The next thing I added was the title, slogan and the characters names. I kept the colour of the title bright so that it would stand out on my poster. I then kept the rest of the writing white as I thought the title would stand out more if the rest of the writing was white.

The final step I took during the creation of my poster was the adding of my expert witnesses. I chose to have the colour yellow for this as I did not want to follow normal convention and have it white. I had the date white as I believed it made it stand out more and this is the effect I wanted. I believe that the audience do not take much interest in the expert witnesses and they take more interest in the date. This is why I have made the date white so that it stands out more.
