Background for the poster was created using the cloud effect on Photoshop, and then using the directional light tool. I made a gradual effect of light to dark adding more of a mysterious look.

This is what my poster looked lie when I had placed my three edited images onto the background and added the film’s title

On Photoshop I removed the background of the images using the rubber tool and also lightened the faces to make it more clear that KYRA was the character. As this was a key selling point.

I wanted the images to blend into the poster more as I felt that they were taking away from the impact of the title of the film, and the images were meant to be secondary. I was able to do this using the Gradient feather effect.

I was able to change the angle of the gradient feather, making the bottom of the images more transparent than the top so that her face was still clearly visible to the audience.

After I used the gradient tool the images now blend instead of clashing with the title, making it easier to notice the title.

I originally didn’t use layers feature which made it very difficult the more content I added, with images and text overlapping, I couldn’t move things around the page, without it affecting something else.

I began to organise the layers on the page. They are colour coded so I could lock the ones I was not currently working on such as background or images.

I added some reviews from film magazines
