Film Poster- Development

For the second part of our ancillary task, we decided to make a film poster. This poster would work in part of a series along with the review and the actual short film. We were unsure of how to create this poster as we didn't really have any inspiration concerning what we wanted it to look like. We researched some posters for films and were particularly interested in the following:


This is from the film 'Vantage Point', we really liked the idea of a silhouette filled with pictures and film information, along with the title of the film. I thought this film poster was effective and interesting. We created a silhouette of JJ in a running position to see what it would look like if we used our own photos.

This is the silhouette we made using Adobe Photoshop, we attempted to insert some photos into the silhouette but the shape of our man made it a little awkward, so we abandoned this idea.

Whilst we liked this idea, it didn't quite go to plan, so we researched a wide variety of film posters and decided that we liked the London to Brighton one. I liked the idea of having a few photos on the poster and film reviews which told you a little bit about what the film was like.





We based our film poster on the London to Brighton one as we felt it was most effective and professional, I decided to review London to Brighton too, in order to maintain the same kind of genre and theme.
