Film Poster Attempt One

This is the first attempt of our Film Poster. My partner and I took a printed copy of our poster and received comments from our target audience, on how we could improve our poster to make it more appealing and get the target audience to want to see the film.

The most common set of comments that we received were: -

• The title of the film needs to be larger maybe coming across the whole width of the page, just to make it more obvious that this is the title of the film.
• There are too many fonts used across the poster and should be limited to 3 fonts and no more.
• The names of the actors should not be scattered around the page it makes it look very unprofessional and should be lined up across the side of the page the opposite side of the face so that they don't cover up the facial features.
• Also the actor names look very basic and non professional, and should have an effect added to them, to help them stand out from the background of the poster.



My partner and I will look more closely at our poster and make the changes that have been addressed to us to make the poster more effective and professional.

Another idea that we tried out

We took close up shots, of half the actresses face to create suspense.  The close up helped us to use effects of horror with the actresses eye, which was effective to the genre.  Going through the process and arranging the poster we realised that the image was too close and the background of the shot was incorrect for the genre of our film trailer.
