Research and Planning - Final Magazine Cover

This is our final magazine cover. We found this cover effective as it involves all the usual things in a movie magazine about other movies, actors/actresses, interviews and unseen pictures from our movie. We used a big picture of our main character when she awoke from the "dead" as it was one of our most effective scenes and this is the main part of the movie that gives everyone chills and causes it all to click together. The wounds on her face are effective with the poster as that is what makes the poster complete; without them the poster would be just a teenage girl sat up against a tree staring at the camera/audience which would then cause confusion and this is not what we would like to do as the audience wouldn't then suggest the movie to other people and the profit would go down hill as no one is going.
The titles are different shades of red and different sizes, this is effective as it gives the poster more interesting things to look at rather than all the same size and all in the same direction. We changed the direction in which each title is so that it draws in attention from the audience and makes them question what the movie is about and the only way they can find out is to watch it.
