This empty mirror frame is my inspiration for the main image of my movie poster because I like the idea of having Ann come out of the mirror because I fell that it sums up to movie just by itself and the audience will instantly know that the movie poster relates to the actual movie. Also, I used Adobe  Photoshop and the quick selection tool to select the piece of the  mirror that I wanted (which was only the frame). This image is what I want on my movie poster. I will have Ann coming out of the mirror (which is similar to this mirror) with her hands in a similar position and I will have the frame of the mirror I am using be blended into the black background, which will make the audience fearful because the picture of Ann I will use will have a bit of fake blood on her.

                          These are the movie posters which I found interesting to use and will most likely copy similar elements of these posters.  You can tell that these are horror posters because of the lighting in the posters-they use low key lighting and they use dark, bleak colours to represent danger and a sense of evilness. It uses red as well which suggests danger and blood.

The process: My teacher filmed me standing in front of one of the computers near the door. Then we took out the glass from a wooden frame and we filmed the frame. Then we uploading all our footage onto the macs and then opened up Premiere Pro. We put the footage onto Premiere Pro and played around with some buttons and functions, we put the footage of my in front of the computers and shelf and we put it inside the frame to make it look like i was coming from within the frame.

Costume: The costume for Ann will be a black, knee length dress, with rips and gashes and blood all over it. I chose for her character to dress up like this because I wanted her to represent something dark and twisted, seeing as she had a horrible childhood and a brutal murder. She is wearing the colour black because it represents her evil nature. it is similar to the Grimm Reaper wearing a long black cloak, which represents death. The costume for the doctor will consist of a lab coat, glasses and a stethoscope. For Alice she will be wearing bright clothing. I chose for her character to wear bright clothing because this represents her innocence and childish nature. It is contrasting to Ann. For Ryan, he will be wearing trousers, a jumper (black) and trainers. For Harriet, she will be wearing olden style costumes, the same style as the Victorian era For Elsie, she will be wearing feminine jeans, a jumper and shoes. For Jessica, she will be wearing jeans, top and boots. Setting...
