This document summarizes the steps taken to develop a horror film teaser poster in Photoshop. Background images were selected, including an old creepy house and ominous clouds. A central image of a scared girl was edited to look alone and unnerving. The house was manipulated to appear older and spookier against the dimmed clouds. A bold, slightly destroyed font was chosen for the tagline, "Who's Watching?". Credits and a JLA Productions trademark were added to give the poster a professional look conveying someone or something is watching and make viewers want to know more.

2. The Original photo
I have used this photo for the background of my poster, with using Photoshop I will be
able to create a basis for the main figure daisy.

3. The posters main Picture
I will use this picture as my central image, in front of the creepy house in the
picture above.

4. Background
This background will be put behind the house to give the poster a more
scary and sinister look. Clouds are also the sign of something to come,
therefore this will make the viewer feel as if, there is someone or
something going to hurt this girl in the poster.

5. JLA PRODUCTIONS
For a more professional look on my poster, as well as the trailer I created a trademark
to show that it is my own trailer, that I have created. I have done this with the
intention that it will be a well know trademark, like 20th centaury fox.
