Poster process

Below is a powerpoint showing the steps undertaken in the creation of the poster:


The process for the poster was an interesting one. At first, as evident through the flat plans, the original picture was the final girl behind the mask with her finger on the lips. However during the creation of the poster, I had an experiment with cutting out thr features of the final girl and what was left was the mask with some of the bottom half cut. This gave a really intersting effect, and when we asked people what it looked like, a lot said that it was a girl crouching, hiding from something. So overall we decided to go with this.

The rest was very simple, the colours used as they connote horror conventions and furthermore, other simple conventions for the poster such as the age certificate, production company and the credits were all placed as planned.
