However, it is unlikely to be suitable for children under the age of 12.

Our Final Film

Film Titles

This image is the title of our film and the production credits. It is a screenshot from our trailer as it appears at the end. The credits shows the audience what each member of the group did-and shows that the work was shared between them. We are very proud of this as it shows that all of our teamwork and hard-work has all eventually paid off

  

Magazine Front Cover

This is our film magazine. It follows the typical features of a horror magazine and uses the typical format of a black background with red coloured text. The images each represent different films and features in the magazines-with two of the pictures being created by ourselves (the middle picture and the top right picture). The image in the middle was taken in the woods and then edited in Photoshop to create a more sinister look. The whole poster was edited in Photoshop with the help of tutorials and teamwork. 

Movie Poster

The poster was created in Photoshop, along with the magazine and titles, and proved to be a struggle, but an adventurous struggle as I myself had never used Photoshop before and neither had any of the other members. We used the help of online tutorials and began the process of creating our film poster. We started with the background. For this we had to find the right background that offered the idea of a dark sinister film. Next was the titles. We researched how to separate the letters from each other to make it look more professional and then placed blood splatters behind the text to make it look like the victims blood.  We then moved onto the production credits which was simple as we just made some text larger than the others. The final part was the main image and proved to be the most difficult as we had to make sure it looked the best it could be. When it was finally finished we used some blending tools and altered the gradient to create the misty image.
