Film Poster Planning

When designing my film poster I wanted something which would reflect my film so that people would easily associate the link between the poster and the film. Once I had researched into different film posters and analysed them I knew what aspects should be included within the film poster I was going to create.

My first aspect to incorporate was the domestic side of the anger between the two characters. This made me want to have part of the poster brightly coloured as this would be symbolic to the relationship before the arguing. Next, the other side was to be more dark and deep colours which would show the negative arguing which would be demonstrated in the film. The different colours would be clearly contrasted and give the audience an idea of what the film would be about.

Then the film title should also be included within the poster as this would then allow the audience to see what the film was called as it would be more memorable. I would want the font to be a clear bold title which would allow it to stand out amongst the rest of the poster. This should be one of the first things to see as this would be the centre of the film. When adding colour to the title I want the colours of the title to resemble colours which have been demonstrated within the film. I would use one of the colours which we used on the colours of the post it notes. This would be in bold neon colours such as pink, blue, yellow or orange. 

An iconic part of the movie is the establishing shot at the start of the film. This is an important shot of our film as this is where the whole film is set. By having the house as an icon on the poster it would be easily recognised as the whole movie is set in various rooms in the house.

Although, the poster would have looked better by being created on software such as Adobe Photoshop I was not familiar with this software and found it hard to use. I began to draw my film poster by hand as a potential idea to be able to market our film. Every person in my group was designing a film poster which would resemble and advertise our film well. Once this is done we will look at all the film posters to see which would looked the best. However, if there are certain features of different posters which we like we could combine them altogether to make the best poster which we possible could. Once the final film poster had been designed the best user of Adobe Photoshop will create the poster electronically.
