The document discusses color, iconography, and font choices for a film poster. For color, red, black, and white were selected because red represents romance, black will attract male viewers, and white provides contrast. The most important icon is a rose to represent the relationship between the two main characters. For font, the same one used in the teaser trailer will be used for consistency, which is Century Gothic Std in lowercase to match the trailer and imply vulnerability without being too bold.Review of Pre-lim Tast

3. The tagline is lost against the background on the third poster and needs a color or outline change. The edited model is noticeably cut out, so a different Photoshop tool should be used. The actor names also need rearranging.Magazine & poster construction

The magazine cover was changed from photo 1 to photo 2 as photo 2 showed an action shot that foreshadowed something bad happening, fitting the thriller genre of the film better. Additional side headings were added and positioned professionally. Feedback suggested placing the magazine title behind the main photo, which required complex editing in BeFunky to isolate the character from the background and add blurring to focus on her while tying backgrounds and lighting together. Further edits added secondary headings about Emma Watson and films getting darker, using colors from the actual film titles. The final poster incorporated all elements with synergy between colors and fonts to create an enticing cover linking to their trailer.Editing my magazine front cover

The magazine cover was changed from photo 1 to photo 2 as photo 2 showed an action shot that foreshadowed something bad happening, fitting the thriller genre of the film better. Additional side headings were added and positioned professionally. Feedback suggested placing the magazine title behind the main photo, which required complex editing in BeFunky to isolate the character from the background while adding blur and lighting adjustments. Further edits included selecting secondary headlines about Emma Watson and tying film titles to their actual colors. The "Restrict me" text was changed to the film poster font, requiring starting over. The final poster ties all elements together well to entice readers to buy the magazine.Editing my magazine front cover

This document describes the process of designing a movie poster. Key elements included a title in large red capital letters to draw attention, a tagline in blurred red text to add drama, and a black and white image depicting the film's plot about drug use. Colors like red, black and grey were chosen to suit the thriller/drama genre and imply something negative or "shady" within the film involving life and death. The final poster design positions these visual elements to emphasize the movie's title and peek interest in its story.Dps the making

The document describes the process of creating a DPS (double page spread) layout. The author replaced an image because the subject's eyes were closed. Multiple layers were added to blend images and fill space. Sections were cut from photos and layered to replace images seamlessly. Layers were merged and the file converted to JPEG for the final layout. Additional lighting effects and a blurred background were added to emphasize elements. The font, colors, and layout were adjusted through several iterations to achieve a cohesive and readable final DPS design.Media evaluation

The document discusses how the media product uses and develops conventions of real media products. It analyzes horror movie posters and their common elements, such as featuring scared characters. It describes choosing to use an image of a necklace from the film rather than a character. Research on other horror films informed design choices for the poster, such as a plain background and focusing the image. The trailer was influenced by films like Paranormal Activity and Blair Witch Project that used a documentary style with handheld cameras. Characters introduce themselves and react to their surroundings on camera.Progress dps

The designer initially considered a photo booth layout with bloody frames for a double-page spread, but it seemed too gruesome and overwhelmed the interview. They then tried spacing three artists across the pages around the interview text, but positioning the female in the middle made her appear dominant. To improve the design, the designer changed the female image to lean away from the center and made the background darker to make the photos and text stand out more clearly.Progress dps

The document discusses revisions made to a double-page spread layout for an interview with three artists. Initially, the designer considered a photo booth-style layout with bloody framing but found it too gruesome. They then tried spacing the artists across the pages around the interview text but positioning of the female artist made her appear dominant. Further revisions included changing the female artist's pose, darkening the background to make the photos and text stand out more clearly, and adjusting typography colors. The layout was simplified again for clarity as previous cuttings of images lacked professionalism.Creation of North Chamber Poster

Cassandra is the main character and ghost in the film North Chamber. The poster creators used her image and added a red ribbon, which signifies danger in horror films. They edited the image to be black and white but left the ribbon colored to draw attention to it. Additional elements were added, including the film title, actresses' names, a tagline, and an image of hanging rope to represent Cassandra's suicide in the film and hint at the plot. The final poster was created in Photoshop on an A4 template to promote the period horror film.Presentation1
- 1. This is process we went through to change this photo......into this photo
- 2. I felt that this print screen was significant because it is the first time we see the title.We tried to have the title in the middle, but because of the stark shadows and colour it wouldn’t of worked in black.
- 3. In this photo we have tinted it so that we could see the title and sub-title, but this did not work as it took away the thriller vibe.We also lowered the title to make it more visible and changed the colour to red so it would stand out against all the shadows.
- 4. Here we have now got all the titles sorted in the right colours so they are visible, and have added a certificate.I thought that the red font with the shadows coming off it worked well as it gave to the creepy vibe, and I also thought that having the sub-title in opposite colours worked quite well.
- 5. We have now added a red gradient layer underneath the titles so that the titles are still visible, but the photo is faded red, we have also changed the font to make it look for thriller-ish.We have done this because the red really adds to the evilness of this scene and shows the audience that the woman will more than likely do something bad to the man.
- 6. Now we have added the actors/actresses’ names, in different colours due to their background, and the photo is more or less complete.I thought that having the woman's name in black and the man’s in white also added to some of the narrative, considering the woman is evil and the man is good, more or less.
