POSTER PROGRESS - 'An Eye for Danger'

Here is the original image we took for the poster of our film 'An Eye for Danger' and an example of the actress who is playing Celine - they young women who is murdered in our thriller film opening. We decided our poster to be purely a close up of the eye, because it suits the title of our film very well - 'An Eye for Danger'.

We began editing the picture to see what effects we could use to make the picture better and enhance the main focus - the eye. After playing around for a few minutes we decided we wanted the image to be darkened, especially around the eye in order to enhance the eye itself. The darkened effect enhances the eye and the eyelashes and makes the audience focus primarily on the eye. Here we also added red lines, that were wavy to make it seem like flowing blood or scratches across the face of Celine. With the red, we chose to a white contrasted font for the title of the font to make it look good and stand out.

We decided that the eye itself wasn't bright enough, and didn't attract enough attention and therefore, we planned to edit the eye only to make it brighter and more colourful. This was the outcome of the colour enhanced eye and we all decided it looked much better and attracted more attention to the main focus - the eye. We also added a slogan to the poster that could be easily associated with the film during its release. It also correlated with the film title perfectly - 'KEEP ONE EYE OPEN AT ALL TIMES'.

Here is the final edit of our film poster - here we simply placed a release date and the actors names onto the poster in order to make the public aware of when the film was released and the actors to attract attention.
