1. EVALUATIONOF MOVIEPOSTER

2. STEP 1: WE HAD TAKEN MANY STILL IMAGES WHICH WOULD HELP US DECIDE WHAT WE WANTED TO USE FOR OUR MOVIE POSTER THIS IS THE PICTURE WE DECIDED TO USE

3. STEP 2: TO PRODUCE THE MOVIE MAGAZINE I HAD USED A DIFFERENT SOFTWARE CALLED PIXLR. I OPENED UP THE IMAGE TO PIXLR AND STARTED EDITING IT FIRST BEFORE APPLYING IT THE POSTER. I ROTATED IT 90 DEGREES AND DECIDED TO CHANGE THE COLOR. BELOW IS SHOWN HOW I DID THIS

4. STEP 3: AFTER I ADJUSTED THE PICTURE, I DECIDED TO SMUDGE THE PICTURE A LITTLE TO GIVE IT ANOTHER EFFECT. I DECIDED TO SMUDGE THE FINGERS OF THE KILLER. THIS IS SO IT MAKES THE KILLERS FINGERS LOOK SHARP. SMUDGE TOOL

5. STEP 4: AFTER I HAD SMUDGED THE PICTURE, I DECIDED TO OPEN UP A NEW DOCUMENT. ON HERE I WANTED TO GIVE AN EFFECT TO THE BACKGROUND OF THE POSTER. FOR THIS I WENT ONTO PHOTOBUCKET FOR A SCRATCH BACKGROUND. I ADDED THIS TO PIXLR & CHANGED THE EFFECT OF IT LIKE I DID TO THE IMAGE OF THE POSTER

6. STEP 5: AFTER THIS I HAD THE IMAGE AND THE BACKGROUND OF THE POSTER READY. NOW I WANTED TO THESE TWO TOGETHER. I OPENED UP ANOTHER BLACK DOCUMENT AND CHANGED IT TO BLACK. THEN I COPY AND PASTED BOTH THE IMAGE AND BACKGROUND ONTO THE BLANK BLACK DOCUMENT. I DID THIS BECAUSE I WANTED THE POSTER TO BE BIGGER SO I CAN ADD PRODUCTIN DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM.

7. STEP 6: AFTER THIS, I WANTED TO ADD ANOTHER TEXTURE TO THE IMAGE SO IT GOES WITH THE BACKGROUND OF THE POSTER, FOR THIS I USED THE SAME SCRATCH TEXTURE FROM PHOTOBUCKET AND I ADDED THIS TO THE IMAGE. I USED THE WAND TOOL TO HIGH THE SCRATCH TEXTURE

8. STEP 7: AFTER THIS WAS DONE, I DECIDED TO ADD IN THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE. WE HAD ALREADY CHOSEN OUR FONT FOR OUR HORROR MOVIE. SO I OPENED THIS UP AGAIN ONTO PIXLR, AND CROPPED AROUND THE FONT SO THERE IS NO BLACK BACKGROUND ON THE FONT, AND IT FITS NICELY ON. I ADJUSTED THE SIZE SO IT STANDS OUT. LASSO TOOL FOR CUTTING AROUND IMAGES CTRL+T

9. STEP 8: I WANTED TO GIVE THE MOVIE TITLE MORE OF A EFFECT ON THE POSTER SO I DECIDED TO MAKE DUPLICATE COPIES OF THE TITLE AND I WANTED TO USE THIS AS A SHADOW BEHIND THE MAIN TITLE. TO DO THIS I CHANGED THE OPACITY OF THE OTHER TWO TITLE AND MOVED THEM BEHIND THE MAIN TITLE. I ADJUSTED THE SIZE TO MAKE ONE BIGGER THAN THE OTHER.

10. STEP 9: AFTER THIS WAS COMPLETED, I WANTED TO ADD IN THE SLOGAN FOR OUR HORROR MOVIE AND THE RELEASE DATE. THIS WAS EASILY DONE USING THE ‘TYPE TOOL’. WE HAD DECIDED TO USE TIMES NEW ROMAN FONT, AND WE WANTED THIS TO BE IN RED.

11. STEP 10: THE NEXT STEP WAS TO ADD IN PRODUCTIN DETAILS FOR MY HORROR MOVIE. I WENT THROUGH THE SAME PROCUDURE WHEN ADDING THE RELEASE DATE AND SLOGAN FOR THE MOVIE. THIS TIME I CHANGED THE FONT TO ‘EUROSTILE’ AND CHANGED THE COLOUR TO GREY

12. STEP 11: AFTER THIS WAS ADDED I DECIDED TO ADD IN THE RATING OF THE MOVIE. I DID THIS ON A NEW PAGE AND THEN ADDED IT ONTO THE POSTER. I USED THE ‘DRAWING TOOL’ TO MAKE A BOX, THEN I ADDED IN TEXT, AND A ‘15 RATING’ IMAGE FROM THE INTERNET

13. STEP 12: AFTER THE AGE RATING WAS DONE, I SELETED THIS IMAGE AND COPY AND PASTED TO THE MAIN POSTER. I PUT THE ALONG THE BOTTOM NEXT TO THE PRODUCTION DETAILS. I USED THE IMANGE TRANSFORM TOOL TO ADJUST THE SIZE.

14. STEP 13: THE LAST STEP WAS TO ADD IN THE PRODUCTION LOGOS. THESE WERE ALREAY PREVIOUSLY CREATED SO ALL I HAD TO DO IS UPLOAD THE IMAGE ONTO PIXLR AND ADJUST THE SIZE AND MOVE THEM BELOW THE PRODUCTIN DETAILS.

15. COMPLETED MOVIE POSTER
