This is my compeleted Movie poster for horror trailer,I used publisher on microsoft word and paint in the production process of the poster. I chose the certain typography of the red , rough edged title font because it gives the poster a creepy, rough look as if it had been scratched onto the poster. I added star ratings because these give the poster a professional look as these are common on movie posters , its a selling point because it shows how good the film has been rated by well known media coperations. The main iconic image takes up a fair amount of the poster, but not too much as i wanted to leave a fair amount of room for text. i used the words "Creeping to all cinemas soon" because the main word being creeping is obviously part of the horror conventions and it also works really well. I placed a produtction box at the bottom of the poster , as from analysing real movie posters i noticed that these are almost always evident. The production box includes all the people and companys that are invovled with the production and other things such as secreen play, and anything that is in connection with making the film, also the actors names have to be put in the production box as i have done so. The Film certificate was important to place on the poster because this shows the target market of the film, i placed this on the top right corner, not to small and not too big so that it still catches the eye of the viewer. The Tagline is another selling point to the film,because it is rememberable to the audience, it also lures you in because you want to know why you should think before you speak, in relation to this film. I also placed the website link on the bottom of the poster beause most movie posters have this because it is a form of marketing the product even further on media technologies that are accessible world wide.
This is the final copy of the film magazine that i have created, i used publisher and paint during the production process. i made sure that the text in the left side third stood out against the main inconic image and background as it over layed slighty, but i didnt mind it because from analysing other film magazine i saw that they had also done this, they had just made sure that the text stood out against the background, which mine does.
The puff words Exclusive will defintaly get attention as they intruige the reader as they want to know whats so exclusive about the issue. adding more selling points was something i thought was very important to inlcude on the cover because its a way or marketing the product because people are getting extras with their magazine, also the fact thats its free, will defintaley gain interest.
The text that i chose for the header was chosen after i created a poll on my blog and people voted and i used the one with the highest votes as i knew this would please the audience.
i included the price in a smaller font because the main aspect i want the viewer to focus on would be the contents of the magazine which are advertised and not the price, so people will take the magazine to purchase without looking at the price because it really isnt that bold.
