This is my movie poster for my film 'Fire Hills'. I am very happy with the final piece. I would like to credit Grace Leaney who took the photo. I put the photo onto Photoshop and used a black and white effect, which I thought was very effective. The irony is that our actual film ended up bebing black and white. I only wanted one other colour in the poster and that was red, as it represents danger, fear, blood, fire... many things which are included in the actual film. I decided to make one of Grace's eyes red... making the audience doubt whether she is in fact a protagonist or an antagonist. I applied the text and, using the red paint brush on Photoshop, scribbled around the letters until I was happy with the effect.
All in all I am very happy with my poster, I took elements from other posters and applied them accordingly, such as the black background, the figure in the middle of the photo, messy writing etc.
