Here is the advertisement poster we created using Photoshop to advertise our short film. We used conventions from other horror posters to show that the film is of the horror genre. These conventions include: black background with bold red text, mysterious image relating to the plot, a catchy slogan to portray that the film is a horror.
The image displays the end of one of the final scenes whereby the protagonist is grabbed from behind by a gloved mystery figure unaware that he will shortly be presented with a suprise party. These original sketch of the poster displayed a medium shot and an outline of the mystery figure. We felt that this close up shot would build more suspicion as to the events of the film and the close up on his face allows us to see the fear in his eyes and his general facial expression. This ideal poster has been created combining some of our original sketch elements this with real horror posters i have researched of accredited films from the last five years (recent).
