Today, i put the photo's i took for my ancillary task and strted to design and make my promotional poster and magazine. I found this particulalry challenging as my Photoshop skills are not brilliant. It is importnat that the promo poster takes on the same codes and conventions of the film, i.e black and white. I cropped the couple out changed the colouring to black and white. I want the style of this poster to be simple but effective, to creat an air of mystery about the film. I think i have managed to create this however it still needs some considerable work untill i am happy with it. Ideally i would like the jumper the actress is wearing to stand out in red, the only colour that there would be on the poster. The magazine, is slightly different and only has a picture of Helen, the main actress on the cover, from the magazines i studied, the actress/actor was always in character, which is what i have directed the actress to here. She is pointing the gun at the camera, which although it makes her look as if she is coming out of the page, i am not sure whether it is suitable for a film magazine. I shall put the magazine up for peer assessment to see what they feel about it, as they are the audience i would be trying to attract. The magazine, at the moment has minimal font, as i need to research more about what is on magazine covers, and i also need to think about teasers for my cover that involves the film.
