1/1/10










Today I began working on my horror genre poster. The format will be a regular one sheet to allow me to use lots of detail and images to help me sell my film.





To begin I thought about NICS (Narrative, Iconography, Characters, Setting). I decided setting would be the most important thing to establish first as it will be the background of my poster. I decided that I wanted my horror film to be about the occult and supernatural which are common themes of horror. With this in mind I selected some appropriate settings for a horror film.











Then when I had chosen the one that I thought would make the right background I started thinking about the iconography of horror. I decided to use some candles to create a creepy atmosphere and a sense of ritual. I positioned these in the foreground so that the audience would clearly be able to see this theme.
