The document discusses film posters and magazine covers that could provide inspiration for creating promotional materials for a film about a stalker. It analyzes posters for The Exorcist and Eden Lake, noting effective design elements like ominous figures in the background and lighting that draws the eye. For a magazine cover, it suggests taking styling cues from covers featuring the actors for Taxi Driver and Hannibal, such as using close-up shots with dark circles under the eyes or changing eye color to convey a sinister tone. The document concludes that incorporating mysterious or unsettling elements seen in these other promotional materials could help promote the intended creepy and unsettling atmosphere of the stalker film.

3. The Exorcist
 On this film poster I like colours, black, green/yellow
and white, used because it makes the poster look
creepy. I like how you can't see the person standing
at the lamp posts face you can just the outline of the
person standing there. This makes you want to find
who it is and why he is standing there looking up at
the house. It also looks like the man is a stalker
which is what our trailer is about. On my film poster I
think I will have the outline of the main character, the
stalker, in the background of the poster, I think this
would draw attention to my poster because it would
look mysterious.

5. Eden Lake
 I like the way the lighting is in this film poster because it is
light at the front and we can see a women looking like she
is hiding from someone, and dark in the background
where there are outlines of a group of people. I like how
we are drawn to the light part of the poster when we look
closely we can see people in the background. I like the
colours, blue, black, white and red, used on this poster on
because it gives the poster a creepy and cold feel. I also
how the title of the film is in red which make it stand out
from everything else and it also looks like the title has
blood on it. On my film poster I will think about using the
same way the lighting is on this poster and have the
girlfriend in the lightest part and then have the outline of
the stalker in the background. I also will about using the
same colour because I like the way they look and they
had the highest results when we were doing our paper
questionnaires.

7. Taxi driver Magazine front cover
 I like the image used on this front cover because the
actor look evil. It also makes it creepy because the
actor is looking directly at the camera so it looks like
they are staring at the reader. I think having the
image in black and white give the image a eerie feel.
When making my magazine front cover I will think
about using this a close up of the stalker’s face and
having him looking directly in to the camera. I also
like that the way the actor in this image has dark
rings under his eyes, when we are taking pictures of
our actor I will use make up to make dark rings under
his eyes because it looks like he hasn’t slept well
and has been up all night think about his ex-
girlfriend.

9. Hannibal magazine front cover
 I like the way this image is bright on one
side and then fades into black. It makes
you feel like they are hiding something. I
like the way they have changed the colour
of the actors eye the red. This makes you
think that he is the devil because the colour
red gives us connotation of evil, danger
and blood. When I’m making my front
cover I will think about changing the colour
of the actors eyes and only have the part of
the actors face showing on the poster
because I think it looks mysterious.
