FILM POSTER IDEAS - PRE-PRODUCTION PLANNING

While doing our preproduction we realised that we need to think about our poster that we will use to promote our film as well. So on the day we are filming we will take a digital camera with us and try and capture an image we could use for our poster or at least begin thinking about what we will do. Here are some examples of the concepts we will try out:

	This is our first poster design. In this design, we have a picture of the train station in a landscape poster. The two characters are walking away from one another on the platform in different directions while the camera is on another platform so we can see the train tracks and more of the platform. Where we can see the platform and train tracks towards the bottom of the picture, it will fade out to a solid colour which is where we will display our film title and credits on as well so it can be read easily rather than overlaid on the image which would be difficult to read.
	This is the second poster design we produced. This poster is in portrait. It is very similar to our first design and will use the same image as the poster before. However, we also liked the look of the design in portrait and felt it was a nice design for a poster. It will feature the platform fading out into a solid colour again so it highlights the titles and credits more to the audience.
	This is our 3rd design featuring various pictures. In this design, we would want to feature the 2 characters pictures who are looking out the window and can see their reflection but manipulate the images together on the poster to look as if they are both facing each other out the windows and looking at each other through the windows and reflections. We would would also want an image of a train at the bottom faded into the top images to highlight the story's location and how much relevance and importance the train has to our story. The titles and credits would be at the bottom and placed over the platform part of the image but could also be onto a solid colour as we could also fade it into a colour like previously.
	This is our final design and one which we both really liked. On this poster we have a picture of the 2 characters walking in different directions away from each other and in the center of them we have a poster which you would find on a station. However, we will manipulate the poster on photoshop and replace it with text from our film so it seems as if it is a poster on a station but will be used to display our film's title and credits.

These are how the shots we descirbed above turned out as a ruff guide on the shoot. shot 1,3 and 4.
