1. The picture -My shot wasnt taken from my trailer as when I had researched other action thriller trailers suchas Salt for example it was Angelina Jolie posing looking into the camera. I took many manyimages during this shoot to get the right image and used one like the Salt poster, the maincharacter looking into the camera as this has so many connations/denotations of something isvery serious. He could either be after something or he could be scared and fearful. The image isa mid close up and I used no photoshop editing as I didnt feel it needed to be edited. I madesure the character was wearing the same clothing as in the trailer so it links together and willremind the audience where this poster has been taken from and will remind them. I did have awhite background with this image but I felt editing it so the background was black made moresense as it worked with my colour scheme through out and seemed more domineering.Font -The font was taken from a website called 101 free fonts, I use it for my blog titles, other subjectsits a great website to get fonts to link a certain piece of work such as army style fonts, childrenstyle fonts. I have done a blog post researching on fonts to use. As I have always said with mygenre type the font choices are always extemely basic because of the plot line usually as there isnothing romantic, funny or happy about it where as a font for a romantic would be swirly oldfashioned writing, like a letter. I used little font with a choice of Arial and Century Gothic as it didstand out especially in white against the black.Layout - 2. The layout of my trailer was really important to me as I feel it can tell a lot about a poster. Forexample the layout here I have used the image in the middle of the poster so it stands out andgrabs your attention first. With the picture being in the middle it shows that this character couldbe seen as dominating and the main charatcer. I used the main characters names at the topbeside him as then it would give the audience something to look at and for example if it was abig a-list film the audience would then think "oh thats him!" making more people want to see itbecause of the actors. The title was really hard for me to decide where to put it, down the side,at the top... but then as there was nothing going on at the bottom of the picture I decided to putit there as it stands out as well against everything especially with the black background. I think itmay have looked quite good without the white background on the title but the title its self wasblack and couldnt be changed to white.
