Inspiration For My Poster


The inspiration for my horror poster comes from several other films.
I absolutely HATE Horror films, but I really like how both of these films have used different things to form a face.

Original Images



These are all the original images that I have used and edited for my Media Horror Poster.

To edit the eye, I used Pixlr.. and used the tool of Lasso, I then broadened it with the tool's and changed the blur and colour.

Horror Poster with Flowers

Not too sure about the flower positioning, but here's the next stage of the poster.
