Final Poster

Here is the final design for our poster:

There are a few slight changes we need to make, for example there is a box behind the white text from the way we stuck it onto the image, so this needs to be blended in, and we're still not completely certain on the colour of the title.

This design has clearly changed from our previous ideas. We felt that as we had the text all the same colour in the same font, it looked too amateur and simple. Though simpliciy is what we're going for with our poster, we need it to look professional. The added white text has not only broken up the red font, but it adds a further dimension to the poster and, though our previous research and deconstructions, is what the majority of films use in their own promotional packages. We also enhanced the colouring on Emily and made her more pale and almost glowing, as if to appear more supernatural. We also chose a different shot where her hands aren't showing (the make-up wasn't right, as stated in a recent post).

Final Editing

To show our development with filming, this is where we're at thus far, and it's nearing completion!

We have had to change a lot of our initial storyboard due problems in filming. When we filmed the long/establishing shots which were meant to be at the beginning, the lighting was either far too low or too bright in the different locations, and we found it very hard to fit them in with the fast-paced, dark shots in the rest of the trailer. With our music we also found that these long-lengthed shots didn't fit. So, we decided to abolish the whole idea and go with fast shots to start, though still not as fast (due to fade-to-black effects in between shots) as later in the trailer when the music crescendos.

After analysis of what we have, there are still things we need to consider. Perhaps most importantly, the music needs to be in time with the shots and fit in with the flashes and jumpy shots. In a couple of shots (e.g. at 0:17) we might need to add transitions, for example more fade-to-blacks, as the actual shots have imperfections and do not finish correctly. The speed of the shots may need altering, not only to fit in with the music but add to the pace. We may also need to add some further colour alterations, as to make sure they are not utterly dissimilar. The typography at the end with the title and release date still needs finalising and we may need to add some more information with the date. Flash images of sponsors (Ghost House/Twisted Pictures) may also appear towards the beginning.

Website Design

We are currently finalising the design for our website, we're looking at other horror websites such as, 'The Ring', 'The Grudge' and 'Let The Right One In' for inspiration for the link menu.
Common features we have found are: Home, special features, trailer, synopsis, press, photos, buy tickets, games, downloads, videos, behind the scenes and cast and crew. Commonly there are 5 or 6 of these used on each website.

We have chosen to use:

• Home
• Synopsis
• Gallery
• Videos
• Cast and Crew

From using Wix.com, this is the possible website for 'EXPOSURE':
