Film Poster - Draft



The main image that is going to be on the poster is going to be of the ghost because she is the main character in the trailer that haunts everyone and the storyline is based on her. The ghost is going to be in the forest so there are going to be trees behind her, this adds to the genre of horror/thriller because the forest is isolated. The picture is going to be black and white, because those are the colours associated with the horror genre, and when i was doing research on existing horror/thriller posters most of them were black and white. Most of the writing on the poster is going to be red and white. This is because when researching existing posters the main colours of the writing were white and red. The red will show murder and blood, and the white colour shows the ghost may look like a normal girl and pure and innocent but she is really evil and deadly. I have also decided to add production information at the bottom of the poster, this is because in posters like 'Insidious' there was production information at the bottom of the poster, this gives the poster a realisitic touch. At the top of the poster i have added 'from the makers of paranormal activity and Insidious' i saw this in the Insidious poster. This is a selling point of films because when people see that it was directed from previously successful films they will want to watch it

Image Front Cover - Draft



I have decided to name the magazine Empire and it is going to be bold and red. The straplines are going to be white and red and the main image is going to be of the ghost, it is going to black and white and it is going to of a close-up of the ghost. The magazine that i was constantly looking at to produce my own magazine was 'Total Film' magazine, the magazine had a chilling and horror touch to it because of things like the colours used and of the black and white image
