this is the poster for Eden lake, a film that closely relates for my film idea. i really like this poster as it is quite dark and frames multiple people yet our focus is drawn mainly to only one person. this is done to add mystery and fear as we can quite clearly see the female on the left yet all of the other people in the shot have been darkened out so we cant see their faces or intentions this adds to the mystery and intimidation shown by the characters as their body language isn't representing them as friendly or cheerful. however what i like about this poster is how simple and effective it is as the poster doesn't give much away yet we can make a whole story by just looking at it, as we can see                                                                                         that she isn't wanting to be seen by the people in                                                                                     the background and because we cant see the                                                                                             faces of the people we know that they are going                                                                                       to do something bad if they find her

This is the poster for Alone in the dark and this is the poster that inspired my poster idea. although this poster doesn't use photography and is drawn i still think it should be studied. the thing i like about this poster is the way the villain on the left has been framed as you cant see him/her which adds to the mystery that it could be anyone and mix that with the low angle which shows the mystery, intimidation and fear.
another thing i like is the way the axe is shown in his hand as its covered in blood which shows that it hasn't been chopping wood and the way its being held as the villain looks to have a tight grip on the blood soaked weapon which gives us an indication of his future intentions.
