These two posters for the films 'Spiral' and 'The Box' have inspired our decisions the most. I was attracted by the use of black and white with the red that stands out. I decided to take this idea and create a red cross on Photoshop. However, this looked too sharp and didn't work with the layout. I wanted the cross to have blurred and disfigured edges. I looked for a 'painted line' on google and imported this into Photoshop. I copied and pasted the line and rotated one to make it into a cross. I then merged the layers together and decreased the opacity of it in order to place it on top of the main image.
When a film is based on a true story, it creates moral panic for the audience as the audience are more likely to be scared if the story were based on true events. They feel as though it has happened before and it can happen again. Many successful horror films are based on true stories such as 'The Possession'. Placing it on the trailer attracts the audience more.
