I created my poster by taking three separate images: the house in the background, which was a wide view of an image I already had, the gloomy sky, which I took last week and the boy, which was mid shoot, which is an image of my next-door neighbour.
The grass around the house was very, very green, so I had to burn this to darkness it, otherwise it looked pretty and bright and that's not the impression I wanted. I also used the burnt tool to darken the house to make it look less welcoming and more eerie.
Because all my images were separate, i had to used the lasso toll and cut the picture of the boy out and paste it onto the edited image on the house. With the image of the boy, I rubbed out the logan of his school badge on his jumper, and darkened his clothes to look more threatening and less innocent, and made him more translucent. I made the scale smaller and I placed the image of the boy right at the front, to make it look more threatening and in your face.
The sky originally was a sunny blue colour, and i had taken and image of a grey and gloomy sky, so i needed to copy and paste it there. I did this to all the blue sky that was showing.
The last thing I had to do was create a title. I used the writing tool and wrote "Behind Closed Doors" in red, and large writing. I placed this half way down on the right and under that i put the director's name and production name; this is all in blood red writing.
Hopefully the poster created an image of a movie that was scary and of which people would want to see, to be intrigued by the scary house and to want to know what the child does and what the connection between the title, "Behind Closed Doors", the child, and the house.
