I used these posters to get an idea of how a teaser poster looks in terms of, layout, font, size of text, design and colour. Each poster individually helped me create the teaser poster with the suitable conventions of a teaser in place.
In terms of development we worked as a team to portray a poster as effective as possible with the equipment we had. From the draft one to our final draft, there are noticeable improvements to the quality of work.
As we tried different images, we realised it is crucial to maintain the idea of being a 'teaser'. Therefore we needed to make sure that little information was given away and keep the design of the poster neat. After looking through more posters we had an attraction to making the image of John Walters a shadow. As an editor this task was challenging as I had to cut out John Walters character and expose the shadow clearly. To do this I masked off section of the characters body, and had erased it. This appeared rigid and messy, so I used a range of tools to blur, burn and smudge areas. These tools blended pixels together, therefore reducing the rigid appearance and creating a bold outline. In addition to this I manipulated the image itself, adding darkness by adjusting the contrast and brightness.
