Influences for poster HT

I think that this forest picture could be an ideal influence for what we should try and re-create for our poster; with the focus on the sun just breaking through the trees and depth of the picture we could create with help of photoshop to make it seem the ideal place to resemble and give connotations of a horror. It also ties in well with the theme of our film which is set in a forrest. We can grab the interest of the audience by layering the poster with different images; for example in the photoshop tutorial they use clouds to set the scene. We could also adjust the saturation and colour of the photo to enable us to pull of the correct affect and feeling for our poster to give off the correct message.

As the seperation of the trees leaves us with a lot of room to work with we could follow as the photoshop tutorial explains we could use an image to send off a message, in the tutorials case they use eyes i think we could also follow this as it would highten the fact the film is a horror and also add to the suspense of the film as the audience will want to find out who this person is.

We can set the eyes in a black background like the picture above in order to not give too much away and add to the suspense of the piece. Photoshop tutorial also explains that we should work on the eyes and make them more dramatic and other worldly so they fit in with the theme of the film.
