Film Poster ideas

The three main characters stand with each other in a line showing half their faces with a plain facial expression. Behind them at the end of the line there is a dark shadow which is a supernatural presence. The image includes low key lighting, the majority of the light being on the faces, with a dark red-black background. The title of the film 'Presence' is in capital letters in red, the font should either be made to look like blood a faded shadow or sharp. Perhaps with a white outline. The tagline will be underneath the title in the same colour but in a more simple font. The bottom of the poster will include the certificate, credits writing (in the same font as the rest) and the release date or 'coming soon' placed centre bottom in small red writing so that it stands out along with the title and tag line. A review/rating will fit at the bottom too on top of everything else or underneath the title but I believe it will look better places at the bottom therefore leaving a space between the focal image and the film title so that both the image and the title stand out.


A birds-eye shot of the three girls hands placed on the planchette on the Ouija board. Hovering over the board is a dark shadow of a ghoulish looking hand therefore connoting the presence. Low key lighting used again focusing on the hands and board, the background is to be either black or a really deep red. There will be some lighting around the shadow hand so that it will stand out against a dark background, or it will be placed further onto the board since the board is brown. The film title is to be white in a shadow/faded/ghoulish looking font and since it's white against a really dark colour it will stand out and catch the audiences eye. The tagline is to be the same but slightly smaller and in a more simple font but still in white. Reviews, certificate and release date will be placed at the bottom so there is a lot of space between the title, the image and the information.

A hashtag for the target audience to use on social media could also be placed on the poster with the social media icons to create word of mouth online about the film therefore gaining a larger audience and also appealing to a digitally adept younger audience.
