Potential Tag lines

After having looked at many different tag lines found on horror film posters, and analysed the similarities between them, I then came up with some of my own.

1. "He'll turn your life around"

2. "Enter the Dollhouse. But be sure you know what your walking into"

3. " He wasn't who they thought he was"

4. "If you agree to play. He'll bring out the doll in YOU"

5. "They chose the wrong man for help"

6. "They got stitched up"

7. "Come and play in the dollhouse"

8. "He'll invite you into play, but he'll never let you leave"

We decided to choose the tagline "He'll invite you into play, but he'll never let you leave", we used personal pronouns such as 'you' in order to overwhelm and make the audience feel tension.

Unfriended Poster Analysis

--> The main image here is of one of the character's most likely to be the protagonist. --> The protagonist is shown here using a close up shot. The use of this shot makes the character seem close towards the audience. Implying that during the film the audience will become closer to the character and is likely to sympathise for them. --> Dull/dark colours (black, white, grey) --> Use of red, could represent blood within the film and a sense of violence. --> Black background, makes the writing and picture on the poster stand out. --> Movie title (san serif, biggest writing, most bold), indication of genre - located at the bottom to allow focus on the image. --> Credits located at the bottom. --> Tagline - gives away a bit of the storyline. --> Cinema release month. --> Social media links.

Potential Sketch Layouts

After doing research into different kinds of film posters, I sketched out 3 different potential layouts I may want to use for the poster of my film. I noticed a trend within horror film posters - they all seem to have very minimal writing on them and most likely has one main image. Therefore due to this I think that the top, and bottom posters would be the most successful.
