Final teaser poster!

Final Film Poster

This is the final and complete film poster. My group and I have come to the final desicion of our thriller name which is 'Dark Minds'. We thought this name works best as our thriller is about someone's mind being corrupted by the way they view and see things, not like a 'normal' person would. Also how 'dark' connotes with the night time where stereotypically suggests caution and danger, like the colour black which is highlighted in this images background within the trees has been edited to make darker. 

Filming Day 2

Costume ideas!

This costume idea is for the protagonist of our thriller. I thought quite plain, dark coloured clothing, along with white trainers would be best to use as the actor is going for a run in the thriller and runs into  what she thinks is a scary little girl, when in reality is not abnormal at all. We decided these colours would be suitable as we didn't want to use anything colourful to distract the audience and pull them away from the main focus, which is the plot of our thriller.

This second costume idea is for antagonist in our thriller. Along with the make up and hair used to make this character look abnormal and scary, A grey top would be worn underneath, with bare feet to heighten the abnormailty of this character as. When the caera is showing her as a 'normal' character, she will be wearing normal, everyday clothes. 

SECOND CUT (DRAFT)

This is our second and final idea for our thriller, showing the first moments of our thriller in draft. We have missing footage as we have been facing technical difficulties, however the missing footage will be added as soon as possible including music. This footage shows the 'run' up to our main plot line.

Challenges we faced when filming our first cuts

FIRST CUT

First cut

This is our first cut of our thriller. We filmed it a few weeks ago and has just been edited, we have not incuded music or sound effects because in between we have been filming our second cut, which is a completely different idea. This is what we initially thought was going to be our idea, but has now changed.

Film poster ideas

I have created the finaised film poster for our thriller film. The name we decided to go with is 'Dark Horizon'.

Along with the title of the film I have also inserted the age rating we gave our film, which we decided would be a 15. 

As well as that I included poster credits at the bottom of the poster to give credit to those in the group.

I took a variety of photos for the film poster and here are the final four that I most prefered. I have edited them to gain more contrast on the image, and to give the HD low-key lighting effect I desired to confirm the steroetypes of a thriller.
