    This is a poster for the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock film ‘Psycho’. The poster features a close
    up shot of the two protagonists, the title, the location and dark rain as pathetic fallacy
    to hint to the genre of the film. The film was shot in black and white, so the budget
    wasn’t too expensive and to prevent the murder from being too gory.

    Technical skills notes.
    When photographing I used a DSLR camera, a black background, studio lighting and a
    light reflecting disc.
    I used adobe photoshop to edit my poster. I created a contact sheet then decided which
    photo to edit. I place linked the portrait picture of my model layering it on top of the
    landscape black background, I did this to give myself more room to add in secondary
    sourced images.
    I adapted the picture of my model into black and white, decreased the exposure and
    increased the contrast and highlights slightly to make half of the subjects face more
    visible and dramatic looking. I duplicated the layer, decreased the opacity and placed it
    behind the subject as a shadow.
    For the text I created for the title, I made three samples in Microsoft PowerPoint added
    a shadow adjusted the settings then place linked into my project.
    For the fine print text I sourced the PNG from the internet, erased the background then
    added it to the poster. When I was satisfied, I cropped the picture back to portrait to
    suit the poster format.
    Risk Assessment
    I am going to be using the photography studio, so I need to make sure
    there are no leads in the way that could cause a fall. I also need to make
    sure the equipment doesn’t get too hot and break e.g., the bulbs in the
    lights.

    When I am photographing my subject, I will make sure the studio lights


    aren’t too bright to not hurt their eyes.

    When I am editing my photos in photoshop, I will make sure to take


    frequent breaks and not be sat at the computer for too long.
    Evaluation and Improvements.
    I think the outcome is successful in representing a horror film poster. I
    am satisfied with how I created it. When I was deciding on my colour
    scheme I did additional research on Psycho and why it was shot in black
    and white, which made me decide to keep the classic monotone look
    and have a minimal approach using the title as the only colour, so the
    red juxtaposes the black and white.
    If I was to improve, I would make sure I could add in location imagery or
    stock images to look more occupied and leave the viewer with more
    interest as if the poster was a professional advertisement for a film.
