Above is my final poster advertisement for my teaser trailer. The part of the poster I was most pleased with was the image and the effect I added. Before the image was dull and it was just natural daylight, after I added the effect, the darkness and the shadows beneath the branches became more apparent making the image look more sinister. The effect is also negative which gave the white parts of the image blue-ish, again making it look scarier. I think with the shadows creates the viewer to think what could be lurking under them. I then placed another image on top of the image of the trees. The image I choose to use was one I had previously taken which was when I made my sister up to be the crazy woman. I felt that putting this image on top related my poster to the horror genre more and made it more obvious that it was a horror film that I was trying to advertise. I decided then that because I wanted the viewer to concentrate on the image, I felt that keeping the title and tagline in a simple, bold font made them more effective and stand out but not take away from the image, I also made some of the text a dark red to relate to the connotations of the colour red being; blood, danger etc. If I was to re-do my poster, I would maybe try adding in celebrity names.
