Evaluating pictures for poster and magazine


Me and my group member liked this picture as it has the lake and forest in the background which his highly relevant to the film so really grasps the atmosphere of the trailer in this picture. The main scary character looks scary and eerie as her face is covered by her dark hair which portrays that scary feeling of not knowing what or who it is again. The fact she is dressed in white allows her to really stand out of the picture and remain the main focus, which is essential in being able to have a clear link represented between the poster, film magazine and trailer. Also the fact that in the picture the trees have all lost their leaves they look lifeless and soulless, which is like they are representing the main character and the horror aspect of the film. Further more , again the fact that the picture was taken in winter as is visible by the frost on the ground, the image looks cold and chilling which is creating good imagery as a reflection of the mood of the film.
This image again is very affective due to the setting and mise en scene as stated for the picture above. Yet we also really like this picture as it is very significant to the film due to the fact this resembles the shot when the girl drowns herself and therefore again is create a fearful and chilling image.
This picture is another one that i liked from our production as i feel the characters expression really connotes pain, fear and desperation. Also the natural lighting gives her a perfect complexion which makes the photo look professional. It also represents her vulnerability as a teenage girl being haunted in the woods and is therefore believable.

This picture was unsuccessful despite the good background of the deserted forest and the professional lighting on her face, the actress is laughing which does not connote the horror genre and theme we are aiming for.
