Annotated Hand Drawn And Computer Based Ancillary Products

Here is my hand drawn poster idea and the computer version that I've made to show the content that I've used. The main image takes up most of the poster and is central in the poster because I think it's the most important convention on the poster and that it will catch the audiences eye better. The title is just below the main image because the audience's eyes will naturally glance down after looking at the image so the second thing they will see if the title of the film. The credits are going to be in a small font so they don't take any attention away from the poster and the tagline is at the top so again it doesn't take too much attention from the rest of the poster but the audience will read it last and so that sentence will be on the audience's mind as they walk away from the poster. The typography is in red because the connotations mean danger and blood which further adapts this poster into a horror poster.

 


Here's my hand drawn magazine idea and a computer based version to make clear where all of my content is going to be on the screen. The main image is on the left of the magazine because it means it's in the first third going over into the second third. What this means is that the audience will see it first (the first third) and will spend more time looking at it (the second third). It's overlapping the title because it shows that the film is a big film because it's more important than the magazine itself. The sell lines are down the right hand side or the last third. this means that although this will be seen last some more time will be spent reading the sell lines which in turn means the audience will spent more time looking at the magazine.

The colours I want to use are all dark colours for stuff like the background and the the colour of the font as well. I also want to use dark red as the colour of the title because of the dangerous and bloody connotations of the colour. I also want to use a little bit of white on the poster just to make the slogan stand out a bit but not so much that it was take attention away from the title.
