This is the edited version of the original photo we took, as you can see we have made some drastic changes. The first change i made was to place a blue filter over the image, what this did was to turn all the lighting and objects that were mainly yellow and brown colours into blue, white and black shades, this made it so the image fit more in with our film genre, horror. We had looked at some other film posters of the same genre and we felt that most of the ones we saw contained mainly the colour blue or red, so we though that this style for our poster would be appropriate. Another change i made was to the contrast and brightness levels, i had the play around with the levels until i had it so it became a complete siholoutee, i made the darker parts darker and the lighter parts lighter, i am still not happy with the photo as it is now as i feel it is too dim and the blues and whites should be a little lighter to contrast more with the black, but overall i think that we have changed the picture very well in order for it to fir out genre and also look good. The original shot was a good one, but it was not one we could just put straight onto the poster, i think we have created a good feel of mystery and horror, also we wanted it to look intrusive, like the killer is intruding into the home, like he shouldnt be there. i am happy with how the poster is coming along but will add more adjustments until it looks more professional.
