Poster Final

This is the final poster for our movie. We had quite a few drafts for our poster as we couldn't decide on a final design. In the end we decided on a very similar poster to the final draft with a few differences. We are required to make a poster for our marketing, we thought that making our poster conventional would be effective in marketing our poster to the audience. Some of the conventional features we included in our poster is that we have a large image in middle of the poster, billing, a caption and a large title covering the top of our poster. The large image intrigue the audience and capture the audiences attention, the large image clearly indicates to our horror genre through make up. We tried to disguise our character with make up to make him seem like a zombie. Zombie are one of the main conventions of a horror movie and we wanted to hit our horror genre perfectly.

The use of blue bold text is conventional to Sci-Fi and indicates to our Sci-Fi genre, We have tried to show both genres in our poster and show the audience what to expect for our movie. the layout of the poster is to catch the readers eye we have put important information where the eye will read first this is usually the middle of the page this is why most of our information is in the middle for example the title is the middle of the poster we did this so people can remember our title. 

We used Photoshop to create the poster but used other apps for other parts of this poster. For example we used paint to fade darkness around our zombies face to really enhance the scary horror theme and bring out his face which we think is very effective. We also used a website to download the font types and styles to create a stylish poster we thought the text linked and indicated to the Sci-Fi genre as it is blue and bold.
