Poster Ideas

Here are some drafts that we drew out for ideas for our official film poster. We were influenced by other horror film posters and tried to use the codes and conventions of them in order to make our poster look more towards the genre. 

Here is one poster draft. The poster was influenced by the film 'The house at the end of the street'. On the left side of the poster there is the main female character looking in shock and in the far background there is a house. In one of the windows of the house we see the doll. We thought that this would create fear towards the audience and that it would be a good idea as it does not reveal the story but keeps the audience wondering why the doll is there. The title is written at the top, big and bold in order to stand put and the tag line 'She will not be asleep' is at the bottom. 

Here is another possible draft that could help us with our final film poster. This poster consists of a close up shot of the doll revealing details of the doll in order to scare the audience. We found that a lot of horror film posters were very simple and just consisted of one image so therefore we decided to keep one poster simple in order to follow the conventions. The poster is dark and the tittle is written in big at the bottom of the image to stand out and catch the eye of the audience.
