We particular liked way the female characters posture looks as if it is being drag and also the way the character has been positioned against a surface . We also like the dark tone of the two posters, because it related to the conventions of a

horror film poster and creates fear and suspense. These two posters where the man influence for our poster because it is

ideal for our narrative because we could use the victim against the phone box, looking lie she has been possessed.

The important aspect of this poster is that involves

a phone booth, which relates to our narrative

therefore we could use the aspect of using the main character in the phone

box.

Draft of posterDraft of posterOur taglines will

be placed here to draw attention

from the audience and persuade

them to watch the film.

The main character Morgan

will be placed inside the phone

box looking terrified and

crying for help. The image will

show the surroundings of the phone box.

The colour scheme will be black, red and

white as these are conventional colours used in horror trailers

because they represent several

things such a blood, darkness and

evilness. The reason why we used this

setting for the poster is because it creates a creepy atmosphere which should come

across in the poster. The name of our horror film will be

placed on the bottom of the

page along with the credits.

The aspects of this magazine cover that would influence our magazine cover is the

overall layout and colour of the magazine. We also

particularly like the way the main character has

positioned on the page blending with the

background and other elements of the front cover.

I feel that the colour of the font and texture of the background

would look very effective on our front cover and also work well for the genre and theme of our film. The way in which the character is positioned on the page shows his power, authority and dominance which would definitely be good

for our front cover if we chose to use the villain.

The layout of this magazine cover is very effective, the use of red to highlight the

main cover lines is very eye-catching and also the images

at the bottom of the magazine showing what

features inside the magazine looks very appealing. This is something to take in account

for our magazine.

Draft of magazine coverDraft of magazine coverThe colour scheme for our magazine

cover will be black, red and white, like

our poster and trailer.

We will use artificial low lighting to

create a dark black background.

The strip along the bottom of the magazine will advertise other

horror movies that are featured inside the magazine, they

are important to attract readers to read and buy the

magazine.

The main focus on our poster will be on the main character

which is the old homeless man, to highlight the main star of our horror

film.

The barcode will be placed here.

Although we didn’t draw it on here, we will place the film

name here.

Best Photos for Our Magazine cover

Best Photos for Our Magazine cover

Once we completed our rough design of how we wanted our magazine cover to look like, we then made sure we did a photoshoot with the villain

(victor omolaiye). The shoot was taken during the evening inside, on a black background. We felt these three photos are

the ones which would work best on our front cover.

Out of all three photos we selected the first one for

the front cover our magazine, this is because

we liked the way the character is positioned, his facial expression and

body language which creates a dark and creepy

atmosphere.

Magazine TitleMagazine Title

From the three magazine titles that we designed, our

favourite was this one because we really like the dripping blood effect, this works really well with the genre of our film. Readers would instantly recognise

that our film belongs to the horror genre from the effect

of the ‘Empire’ text.
