Poster: Evidence of Photo manipulation



Here this photo demonstrates what was undertaken to create many different effects for the overall outcome of our poster. It was important to assure that photo manipulation was a key factor for our work as it would add to the depth of the photograph and therefore our overall audience will be able to identify best with this poster.
when analysing the image you will be able to see that one of our key features of photo manipulation involved us using Photoshop to edit the depth and brightness of the image. A key convention within the genre of horror can be identify as 'darkness' this can be presently illustrated through current horror films such as paranormal activity, to old horrors such as Texas Chain saw. with that being said as a collective  we decided to use the editing software available and add a filter on top using the function of bevel and boss to add a sense of depth to the image, we also chose to lower the brightness and enhance the contrast, in order to add to the mysterious effect we where looking for. This was a key element of interest for my group as our trailer surrounded the theme and element of darkness.

As you can see the overall effect has a dramatic impact on the final outcome of the image, being that the main image is always a focus point of a poster, it was important for us to create a poster with depth, leaving the overall poster more in keeping with the genre of horror
