so that I could develop the text for the poster and Microsoft Powerpoint in order to edit the images that I wanted to use (the editing that was required was relatively simple so I did not require the use of anything too complicated).
The idea for it was relatively simple, like with the Box, I wanted to get across the idea of Anna appearing to be innocent on the outside whilst secretly being somebody completely unexpected. Therefore, the key design feature that I used was to have half the screen in full colour and the other half of the screen in black and white. I also decided whilst using Cool Text that I wanted the text pieces to appear to be carved onto wood and then put into the background to create the effect that somebody had written those onto the wall behind Anna - obviously, seeing as the technology that I had access to was not the best editing software in the world, it would not appear as realistic as I would have liked but I was pleased with the effect that I had created.
I also needed to come up with a suitable tagline to fit with the film. Initially, all that I could come up with was: "All is not as it seems." But I soon realised that this would not be enough, so I reworked it and and eventually came up with the idea of "Nothing is as innocent as it first appears."
As a Thriller film, I felt that it would be challenging to try and come up with a tagline that did not give away too much about the film, so I thought that this would fit in with the theme of mystery surrounding Anna's character alongside fitting the requirement of not giving away too much.
The first draft for the Thriller poster looked like this:
However, it was pointed out to me that it would be better if I had the director's and producer's names down on there as well. It was at this point that I changed what the tagline was going to be.
Once all of that designing was done, my Thriller poster was ready to be displayed to the public.
