1 Poster Mock Up


The above image is one of my initial mock ups for my poster. Although, this mock up is fairly basic, it consist of the title, 'THE VANISHING', which is positioned roughly three quarters down the page. The reasoning is because I wanted to make the title the base of the poster, as if the title was holding up all the significant elements above it on the poster. I further evaluated this reasoning by applying red as the colour of the title. This conventional red is a relatively bold and strong shade, that connotes a series of horror aspects, such as aggression and blood. This further suggests key characteristics of the villain, suggesting he obtains the cause of death and suffering, since he is a superior figure on the poster.

The two film star names are also positioned at the top of the poster. This conventional positioning helps the layout of the poster to become more appealing to the eye. This information given to the audience can lure in them to see the film, as individuals who have seen films that they have liked with these actors will be more willing to come and see 'The vanishing'.
