Development of film poster idea

What I did first when starting this project, what I had done first was analysing film professional film posters. This was because I was able to see what film posters needed for it to be a perfect film poster however when looking at different genres of films such as: romance, horror, comedy etc. I was able to see what made the film poster stand out also what I through attracted my eye more from each poster. Then when analysing/ comparing each poster I was able to see what the different effects would be on the film posters for example when looking at a horror film poster I would see quite a lot of red on the film poster or maybe just the title in red and also in film posters you mainly find a big family house in the background and also quite a few trees and bushes and the protagonist in the film poster would look quite scary or look very scared this would give an idea of what the film could be based on.
where as when looking at a comedy film poster it is very different from an horror film this is because a comedy film poster would have maybe bright colours for it to stand out, this can really attract the target audience eyes also in a comedy film poster you find the people in the film poster really happy or excited. also when looking at a film poster and analysing it the background could be a family, one plain colour this is because it would make the characters stand out and also the title,

What I had also done for this project was doing my questionnaires. when I had figured out what I wanted my film was going to be about, doing the questionnaire I was able to find out what people through about my film poster and also what they think would make my film poster a good film poster for example because my film poster is a chick flick film it was quite Gurley and also because of the use of colours people where able to inform me of what I could do for it to be a good film poster. also people where also able to tell me what they through would be on a film poster and also what should be on my film poster.
Also what I found that was useful with the questionnaire was that I had asked different age groups to fill out my questionnaire this is because everyone has a different thoughts I also had used open and closed questions, what open questions where was a way for people to write what they thought also a closed question was answers I had provided for them and they would have to  tick witch box they found that suited them. I found this very helpful and useful for my film poster.

What I done that was useful was doing a draft .when doing the draft I was basically doing a mood board this was able to help me to look at the different types of images I could link to my film poster. because my film was about 'a young girl not fitting in with the other girls in the school'. what I had to was to make my film poster look like what the film is about is making the girl that does not fit in to stand out so I did in my draft was I had put images that relate to my film so images of friends also cheerleading and a girl on her own with other girls in the background,this also helped me because of the way I could set up my film poster and the way they could be positioned and also the emotions on the peoples faces in the images.

The final piece of work for this project I had done was using photo shop and making my film poster.
