REVIEW PAGE: Choosing most appropraite images from film
For the review page we wanted to put an image that would give the audience interest in the film with just one glance of the picture so we chose this image which has been.
This is how the sketched picture looks in reality.
REVIEW PAGE: Drafting text
This was the layout for our Magazine review which we got we came about this idae by examining how other review pages looked and then we incorporated these style into our own ideas.
Because of the plan we came up with we only had one draft to do with very little changes to make which were just spelling corrections.
This was our final product of our film review page.
REVIEW PAGE: Resaerching different film magazine audiences
With internet use i researched film magazines such as 'Film review' and discovered how this magazine targets the mainstream audience who like to watch the popular 21st century films, they do this by using pictures of the best actors or the best films as their front covers.
FILM POSTER: Drafting/ editing
After sketching the layout of our poster we then made a model of it on the computer to get a better and clearer view of how our poster would look like.
This was the 1st stage of our poster with the older brother in the background section of the poster.
2nd stage
We then took a Picture with Emmanuel which will be used as the fore ground.
We used the software firefox to cut this picture this was a long process as we wanted to give the illusion that this picture was taken in one go.
.jpg)
I then pasted it onto the original picture in the 1st stage, giving the illusion that the younger brother is spying or keeping a close eye on his older brother.
Finally we added the font and credits, we also put in an effect in the background of a white substance it affects the older brother but not the younger one, giving the feel that the older brother is entagled in the trap of iNSOMNiA.
FILM POSTER: Choosing most appropriate images
We wanted to choose the right image for our poster so we had to take a variety of pictures so that our poster could give out the right image.
First of all we emptied out the room to see what effect that it would give to the poster, we did not choose this particular one because the room looked empty and unused which would not make our poster look realistic.
We then rearranged the room in a messy way making it looked used, and giving the effect to the audeience that the owner of the room is disorganised and confused.
We then went onto the foreground picture for the younger brother and we needed his face to be in the right position for the poster to look realistic we first of all took this one but the character looked sad and not cunning.;
We finally took this picture and this was the take that we were looking for that would give the audience the right effect since he looks like he is spying on someone. As ytou can see we already started erasing the background to get the picture ready for pasting on the original.

FILM POSTER: Exploring fonts
We developed our font to a professional standard by making improvements to each of the fonts we made by adding new designs to suit the nature of our film.
This was the first design of font that we made, we initially went with this because of the bold features such as the capital letters and the sharp edges.
We played around with the title and decided to change the colour of the font to white and gave it a black background. This was just an experiment.
We then enhanced our previous title because of the dull look it had so we changed the design to give a more horror movie look with faded white background lighting. This style of font was too flashy, as when an on goer sees the poster they would concentrate on the title too much.
Afterwards we changed the style of font and kept the black background, because it gives the font an effect of mystery and is also eye catching.

FILM POSTER: Setting up mise en scene
The first place that came to mind when thinking of a place to make our poster was the room of the older brother, but the picture we had taken shows the older brother in the background and the younger brother in the foreground.
This is the background with the older brother that we took initially
We then added some special effects to the pictures to give it the 'Insomnia' feel.
FILM POSTER: Sketching possible images
First of all when we were planning for our poster we decided to do sketches to bring us to our final outcome.
This was our first sketch which was just a small plan.
we used this to know how the poster was going to be designed and where to place all the counterparts like the title and images.
After we got the ideas down we started to sketch them quickly to get the full picture of how the poster would look like.
.jpg)
This was the outcome that we came to, this final sketch enabled us to come up with good ideas for our film poster. with different ways to position our characters and our font in whatever way we felt.

FILM POSTER: Pitching ideas for poster
Pitching ideas for our poster was an easy task for our group as we had loads of ideas which we could put together.
When I drew out my first idea this is how it came out, after the plan of how we wanted the poster to be laid out:
In this initial plan, the older brother is in the foreground and the younger brother is in the background as an effect of making him look like a sly person, making the older character look more important. We used the bed as a representation of sleep and the alarm clock under the bed as a representation of time waiting for nobody, as during the film as time passes by the older brother can't sleep.

FILM POSTER: Analysing conventions of film posters
When looking at film poster we mainly looked at films which had the same Genre as our or looked like the had the same Genre for example our Group came across the film Guess who
We took the Idea of Bernie mac (left) hiding behind the door for our film except our character (emmanuel) is peaking into the room by the wall spying on his older brother.
