'The Outcast' Typography

Here I used the same font 'vani' as I did for escape. I changed the bottom word to red to fit in with the blood and horror theme. For this I have just used the brush tool and added different blood splatter effects in the same colour, in some places layering them to create different effects. I like how this has finished as it was really easy to achieve but look affective and conveys the idea of horror and gore. 

'Escape' Typography

  I started with the title 'escape', I have made it a red colour and placed black cracks on the copy (using the brush tool) as though it is old and worn.

 Here I used the sponge tool to make the lower half of the copy a darker colour (fading out)

Here is the final copy.

Photo Manipulation 2

These are the two original photographs I have taken, the girl looks a little sarcastic so hopefully I could get a more realistic 'screaming' look next time. These woods are local near me and look very isolated and creepy. 

I layered the photographs and changed the opacity to 50, to look like this. 

The end image gives a hint towards character and setting. 

Photo Manipulation

Here I took three images I have taken; My dad's eye which looks outstretched  almost looking painful, to give a striking effect. A photo of my friend (using the studio), I liked this photo as she looks almost anonymous as you cannot see her face. The building was one in Hastings  but when put with a background so blank it looks quite foreboding.  

I changed the colour of the eye to red, mainly because red signifies danger. I did this by using the 'drawing too' and filling it with a red colour, then changing the opacity.

I then changed the image by adjusting the 'brightness and contrast' and 'colour vibrance'.  

I then layered the building on top and changed the layers opacity. Giving it an eerie effect. This is my favorite as it looks more eerie.

I still need to bleed the images out more as this is still an image not a poster. 

I then made the building stand out more and cropped the image to A4. I don't like how the image started to change from here on, the eye was no longer as red and I wanted the building to stand out more but the effect I used didn't work like I would have liked. 

Afterwards I layered the image of the girl onto the eye, as the seeing a reflection/through the subjects eyes. Next time I should maybe edit the photos individually and then put them together instead of layering them and then editing them. 

The final image.

Small Fracture

I added a small fracture to the girls left cheek, this is where the idea originated from. I thought I could use the fracture to signify different things, maybe a character falling a part, a family, the plot or relationships.

Eyes

The above posters are are what inspired the girls eyes in my poster. Eyes show a lot of emotion so when blanked over everything is supposedly left behind, (for example human emotion) leading posters like this to normally be about being possessed (the paranormal). 

Original Photo

This is the original photo I have used, before editing. I found this on Google and I chose it because of the colours used, red is often used within horror posters (to convey danger or blood).
