Hello,

I hope you enjoy having a look at my A2 blog which I have created this year.

My Research and Planning starts in September and my Evaluation begins in March. You can find my final film poster, magazine and trailer at the top of my blog.

Thank you for all the feedback you have given throughout the year, it is appreciated and has helped me a lot.

Research and Planning: Horror Film Posters





Later in the year, I will be producing a film poster for my film trailer, I wanted to start research early so I understand the type of text, images and colours they use on posters. Posters are a big part of promotion and distribution of film, it helps to market the film and bring in an audience therefore it is important to make the poster appeal to your target audience. All three of these posters use quite a disturbing image this is to portray the genre, the scarier the better for horror fans. Dark colours are used throughout, mostly black however what is interesting is the recurring colour red which seems to appear on each of these posters in a certain element. Red is a colour that is humans seem to respond to most and are very visually aware of, this could be because of the connotations of this colour which are danger, blood, love. The text seems to be in a different colour from the rest of the text and image as the film name/title is supposed to stand out and stick in an audiences mind.
