My Photo shoot for my Horror movie

 This one was a bit of a flop cause you could see the person under the cloth and there would be no point of it being of the cover of the poster cause the audience would already know who the killer of the film is and this will ruin the film.



 This would be my second choice cause it shows the full body of the character but the thing is, is that  you cant see much of the characters face that's why I didn't pick this as the first choice for the poster. also it would be quite dark to be in a poster also the audience needs to see the characters face to know who the character is.







This is the first choice for me to use for my photo shoot cause the picture matches the real character perfectly and will do well. also the theme of the film and the picture are exactly the same such as the film is based around a woods/forest and so is this photo cause there is trees in the background image.

I need to get rid of the torch in the bottom of the screen cause it is kind of wasting space also i will use the date at the bottom of the screen as the release date and it looks really creepy as if the poster is a photograph.

The photo shoot part 1

The logo will look dark/black to match in with the theme of the film and the logo will look like a scary sort of font.
This is the logo so far, for the film: 

This will be an ancient picture to symbolise the film:

The character that is circled is the main character/killer of the film and is the main character.

I used my inspiration for my film poster from this film poster. so basically my poster will The Slender man showing his back and his face is slowly facing the camera so that you can see a bit of his face to create an emotion between the producer.

4) Planning photo shoot

Who will be in it?

well the photo shoot will be me as the charcter/killer in the film. you won't be able to see my face cause the character has no face its just plain white. The character will be in the woods surrounded by trees cause the theme of the film is based in the woods/forest.

What logation?

I will be using the nearby park as an insperartion to take to photoshoot near the woods/dark ally way since my film theme is based in the woods and links in perfectly.

Costume and make-up?

Well all the central image charcter needs to wear is:
  • suite/black
  • White cloth
What type of shots are you planning?

Well im planing to take a mid shot. The shot will be taken from the characters back and half way showing his fce so that a little light is reflected on to his face. Also he will be in the woods so there will be a forest/night background.

3) Film pitch

The Slender man goes on a killing spree to make the victims life a LIVING HELL!

The film is a Horror since the film will be based on a man on a killing spree with the blood of innocent kids. He has no face but yet he can smell the fears of his victims and is ready to take their life.

Similarity to a film:

  • The blare witch project- since the film is based in the woods and kids and adults are going missing.
The target audience of the film will be from at least the age of 15-18 cause there wont be allot of blood scenes.

Well i think it is good to keep the characters unique and different, because if there was a well known actor and i use his/her name in the cover and the central image is me it would look unproffesinal and it would look odd. Also i need a crew to help put the poster of the film together.

What happens in the story of the Slender man:
Slender is about a gorup of High school kids from a school far away and there school has arranged a field trip for the kids to stay for 3 weeks. But what they dont know is that the forest they are camping in is haunted and the person haunting it is for ever kown as, THE SLENDER MAN!
