Fourth draft of my poster

After having feedback from my peers I have taken on their advice and changed my image as I have described in the slideshare presentation. My next step is to create my billing block, add my social networking sites, tagline and also the films website. I am happy with how this image was taken and edited.

First draft of my magazine cover



This is my first draft of my music magazine cover, I am happy with the way the actor is modelled and positioned, however I do not like the positioning of the words. I need to add my masthead for my magazine. I have shown my magazine to a small focus group who gave me ideas on what I can change. They also told me what they did not like about my magazine cover and one member of the audience said the line underneath 'Shattered' did not look right. I will listen to the feedback I received and work upon it.

Movie poster presentation

After giving the presentation to peers in my class and teacher I had good feedback which I am going to listen to, for example they said the image was good however it did not look like the female in the front looked scared by the figure behind her. They gave me ideas which I could use for example use blood on the mirror, have a shocked open face. I also criticised my draft of my poster because of the scenery behind the mirror, it takes away the idea of the mirror, for my next shoot of this photo I am going to add blood on the mirror, have a shocked face and also get rid of the background. I thought the criticism I received off peers was very helpful and will help me in the redrafting process. After redrafting my poster I am going to show my target audience and see what they think about the poster and what story it shows.

Third draft of my movie poster

I thought I would conform to codes and conventions of horror poster and add an effect to my poster, personally I thought it looked well. However it does take a lot from the poster image and is quite a bit white space. The only issue with this draft is that it did not allow me to add my billing block, I am going to present this to my peers in my class who are part of my target audience and see what they think about it and listen to their feedback.

Second draft of my movie poster

This is my second draft of my poster,  I have added Facebook and twitter as social network advertisements because not only does it fit in with my target audience it is a good way of advertising the film trailer. I have noticed that the tag line at the top is not clear enough to be able to read it, however personally I think the tag line is good because it intrigues the audience into wanting to watch the film.

First draft of my movie poster

This is my first draft of my movie poster, as you can see it is missing important parts such as the billing block, advertisements, tag lines and actors names. My next step is to include all of these to conform to the codes and conventions of similar genre posters. I am not totally happy with my image but I am going to present it to my class early April to see what they think about it and take on the feedback they give me to how I can make my poster photo better.
