Potential poster layouts

Although we have all agreed on a visual concept for our poster , we have also thought of backup ideas in case the initial idea does not work or it becomes too difficult to achieve. Both ideas are very different and hold different indications to the plot of the film, meaning either idea would be suitable.



Poster 1
Instead of having the male protagonists face reflected on the glass or plastic of the clock we decided to shatter the clock which is red to fit in nicely with the motif of red, giving the impression that the protagonist has taken his anger out on this essential component.

With the colour red present this caught our eye and we decided to experiment with the visual concept of this as a poster idea. We used some photos that we had printed of Ribh, the female lead, and pinned it to the centre of the board using one of the darts.

We increased the saturation of the image to bring out and emphasise the red background of the clock which is another important motif in the film. Sharpening the image as well as blurring and darkening the left side of clock with an application of shadows made the red stand even in an even more striking and thrilling way which was our goal for the poster. The Clock When brainstorming visual ideas for the face or look of our poster, we decided to use the actual clock used in the film as the main image for the poster as it gives the audience and indicate to a major motif of the film.
