I wanted to create a film poster for personal desire and pleasure, to help myself display my movie visually. I included elements such as the title, the release date in cinemas, participants involved in the production, awards and social media. I think it's important to include these in a film as it informs viewers with brief information which may be crucial when attracting people. This may be because some members of public could be more likely to go and watch something if they're interested or familiar with the actors or people involved e.g producers. I discovered this when I asked in my survey what reasons people had to watching a film and one response was because of actors involved. I had to think about how I would want to portray my film if I were to release it, and what message I'd want to get through to an audience.
Film posters are necessary for advertisements and promotions for productions, trying to influence and persuade the public to watch. Making them eye catching and bold are significant to therefore do so, including distinct fonts and colours which stand out.
For my poster above I used the app, Powerpoint, as it was simple and helpful when adding text and images. I chose to put in the image of our stalker behind his victim, taken when filming, as it sums up the main idea of someone being tracked down, as well as having chilling connotations due to someone being followed unknowingly.
