The making of our Poster


As you can see from the two pictures above, our poster has differed over time. When we first started designing posters we planned on having the slogan "if you go down to the woods today" on the tree, however, when we finally added the text on, it didn't look very professional and looked very amateurish. So once, we added on the credits at the bottom of the poster, i though it looked better to have the slogan on top of the text instead of in the middle of the poster. We then added a white to red tin on the text so it looks like as the storyline goes along it gets darker. For obvious reasons we chose to have our release date on the "April 13th" which is of course, A friday - representing the horror genre worldwide. As you can see apart from the text, the poster is quite dark, so we though it would be more affective to have "Ruby" almost connected to the text, otherwise some people may not be able to see her as the silotte is black and so is the foreground. Even though the picture of Emma that we took was effect, it needed some editing (mostly a dark tint on photoshop) to make sure we were really targeting our poster at the right audience, otherwise it could look like a thriller instead of a horror.
