Shooting session for poster

This is the picture that I chose for my poster:

I chose this picture because I liked the way you can see a slight fear in her eyes and the way that the background is empty, giving the feeling of loneliness. I also liked the slight glow the image gave, I think that it brought it to life.

These are some other pictures I took during the filming session, I was experimenting a few different shots to see which one would fit best to my film:



In the first picture I used flash on my camera and I didn't think that it gave it a good effect. Although I wanted the picture to be dark and empty, with the flash I thought that it looked too dull and simple, so I decided to take some of the pictures without the flash to try and get the right effect. I also didn't use this picture because I wanted her placed at the side of the image, I was just trying lots of different things to have a variety to chose from.

The second picture of the teddy bear was just a test to see how it looked, I had the idea of how I wanted my poster to look pretty clear but I just thought I would take a risk and take a picture of just the teddy bear to see if it was effective, and I found that it wasn't effective enough as I had thought. Although the teddy bear is an important and iconic prop in my film, I didn't think that it was enough to have just that on the poster.

The third picture of the girl in her room with her teddy bear and bag did not go to plan as you can see! This one came out a bit blurry, the others were ok but I wasn't satisfied with how it looked, I didn't think it looked 'real' enough and didn't create the feeling that I wanted for poster.

Overall, this shooting session for my poster went really well. I am glad that I took a variety of different pictures because it gave me the opportunity to experiment with a few of them whilst editing and then decide which one worked best with my film.
