We had a look at different movie posters/covers so that our group could find some inspiration for our own.
In this post we will show some different posters and covers from various horror movies that we felt conveyed the "horror" theme.
Oldschool Dracula cover.
Red writing which symbolises blood.

Saw movie poster. As time progressed in film, more gritty posters / covers have been allowed.
Blood is used in this and shows contrast between the rest of the clean image.

The exorcist movie cover. Use of sillhouetting to create uneasiness / darkness / suspense.

Triangle DVD cover. Ratings used to promote movie. Use of bold fonts exadurating words to entice viewer. Scared facial expression & contrast between blood & no blood.
The red font seems to be a re-occurring feature in horror movie titles..
These are but some of the examples we looked at. In our group discussions we viewed various others. We began shooting our main character so we could create a promotional material such as DVD covers & posters.
The DVD cover (below) was created in photoshop CS3 by Amin , we drew inspiration from movies 19** movies such as Dracula and new age movies such as SAW VI and Triangle which primarily use the colour red on the covers and text to symbolise blood and gore to give a feel of horror before even viewing the movies.
