Film Poster Editing

In order to produce a professional film poster i used Pix LR to edit my image and make it look more scary and build up enigma codes for my target audience. I followed the codes and conventions of horror as I used dark colours such as black and red to represent the evil and death in the film. My image is of the killer, to make the audience aware of the killer and tease them as the image is of a young girl covered in blood. It is playing on the idea of the innocence of a child as the child looks evil, and this therefore, is building up the enigma codes within the audience.




Here i have added a black back ground to the image and i have changed the brightness and contrast to make her stand out more an make the blood look more real. This follows the codes and conventions of horror as it looks scary and blood and dark colours are seen through out mainly all horror films.



Here i have added a blur effect around the image to make the killer appear more mysterious and look different to any other killer in horror films.







Here i have added this image of Louise into Pixlr. I added text from power point and made it red in order to follow the codes and conventions of horror. This also represents the evil and death within my film, so this successfully teases the audiences into thinking what happens in the film.







Here i have added effects such as splatter and cracks so that it makes my teaser poster seem more scary, which follows the codes and conventions as it teases the audiences to make them want to go watch it.







Here i have added the effects splatter to create a horror look on my teaser poster. This is following the codes and conventions of horror as it is building up the scariness within the audience.







Below i have used red and grey splatter effects which i will use in a focus group to get opinions on which colour works best on the teaser poeter. In  my focus group i will have boys and girls aged around 16- 25 as this is my target audience.
