Here is the film poster for my film!
Please click on the poster for the best quality!!

Hopefully this poster will entice people to come and see the film!! (as well as my teaser trailer of course)- I'll update another post with people's opinions of my poster, however in this poster, I'm going to explain how I made it!!

MAKING THE POSTER
FIRST! I had to take pictures of the pictures I wanted to compile together, all the pictures except the falling clocks (the main clock is mine) were taken by me!
Here is a few examples of the pictures that were taken orignally:

This is a picture of my eye.

This is a picture I took of my sisters eye.

This is a picture of a clock that I own that I have used for the centre of the poster, also, it is an iconic image as you see it in the trailer too.

SECONDLY: I used a program called Adobe Photoshop CS2 for my photo editing, this meant that I could work on all the different parts of my poster individually, which is key, because it meant if I made a mistake, I could delete a layer instead of the whole image.

THIRDLY:I started to join the different images together to make one face, with the old clock being in the foreground to show it's importance in the film. I then added the masks and all the clocks around the centre image.

FOURTHLY: I added the logo, the title and the small text at the bottom of the screen.

There wasn't much to making the poster as a lot of the actions were similar in making the poster, however it was a time consuming, but hopefully it was worth it!!

And Ta-da we're done!!!


Meaning behind the poster
The reason I have chosen to have lots of different images to compile a face together is because I have no fixed main character and instead multiple amount of characters of an equal significance, therefore the main person image on the front is representing all the characters that would be in the film e.g. there are different eyes, hair, different hands etc.I also decided not to blend the eyes and the nose, as I wanted to symbolise they are actually different characters, otherwise it might of looked too similar.

The centre image in the poster is the old looking clock, I thought that this needed to be highlighted as it would future a lot during the actual film and is infact the first thing you see in my teaser trailer following the company logo. Also, obviously there s a clear theme in this poster which is clocks.

There are numourous of clocks that seem to be falling around the centre image, I thought this was a nice touch as it's getting across my point that clocks are heavily related but also it fills up the space around the centre image too.

I've decided to have the logo in the top right corner, because of what the logo orignally looked like, it blends in the gradient background on the poster.

There are two masks on the poster, that belong to Tick and Tock, I thought it was better to have the masks instead of the actual characters because it blends into the poster more, however, I am thinking of having the actual people/characters for the Film Magazine.

The title I've decided to make it green to follow the convention colours of Sci-Fi....not much really to say here, just double layered the text to make the title stand out more, also I put next to the title the age restriction- 12A

Last, but not least, I have the small text at the bottom, I've also decided to put this in green text, except the date of release which is in white and bold, and also a different text, so it stands out more. The text features the maker of the film, music, a few of the actors, the company and the website.

Here is what I rough image of what I wanted my poster to be like, I hope that it looks similiar to want I want and better!!

That is all folks!
