Poster ideas

 For our poster we are thinking about creating the illusion that Harley is running away from somebody but the audience do not know who it is, the background to the poster is dark and mysterious and reflects the genre of the trailer that is, psychological thriller.
 When we were taking photos of Harley we made sure that we captured the lighting in the right way so that it looked like the light was coming in from the window so we made her position herself on the floor with light coming onto her face. 
We did have some difficulty when we designing the poster because we had to take photos of Harley previous to making the poster and therefore we had to edit her in and that was difficult because we had to develop our Photoshop skills when we were editing the picture of Harley, scaling down the photo and making it look as if she was already in the frame to begin with.

The orginal photo looked like this:


And over time we have learned to develop skills via photoshop to edit the picture of Harley into it.
We took a variety of different shots of Harley so we knew what sort of angle and postion we wanted her in for the poster. We then decided on a photo of Harley where she was positioned on the floor looking up to give the impression that she was kinding from the 'stalker' we had to fix lighting issues with the picture and Harley and I worked on the different effects that we needed to make the poster look realistic. The hardest part of this task was trying to put the photo onto the orignal image and making sure we used the feathering tool to make it look like she was already in the scene.
