Film Poster Final Decisions

After evaluating all of the draft film poster I created I decided that these two drafts were the two that most stood out and suited the horror thriller genre of our trailer.

The reason why I chose this film poster was because I think the image works really well with the rest of the film poster convensions. It contributes to the red black and white colour scheme as the image is in black and white; which also adds to the horror and thriller effect you would look for in a horror film poster. The expression on Kate's face added to the thrill of the trailer as it suggest to the viewer that she is looking at something.
To improve on this film poster I would add a redist tint to the main image so it emphasized the horror thriller genre and also contributed more with the continuity of the poster with the colour scheme. Also I would change the colour of the text on the rest of the poster apart from the film title to a bold white, this would make it easier for a viewer to read.


The reason why I chose this film poster was because I think the main image has a good impact on the viewer. With the image having a red tint and it being slightly distorted adds to the horror thriller effect you would expect a horror genre film poster to have. Only being able to see half of Kate's face also adds to the suspense as the viewer wonders what Kate is hiding.
A way how I could improve this film poster would be to fade the bottom part of the image, this would contribute to the horror effect and also make it easier to read the billing block and the release date. changing all of the text apart from the film title to a bold white would make it easier for the viewer to read the text.
