As you can see from looking at both of my ancillary texts, there has been a strong link made. The image that has been included on my poster is the same image positioned on the web page. This is also relevant to the title of the film, as they are the exact same image that has been used twice. The main inspiration used for my poster has come from looking at the poster for the film 'BUG', referenced in my poster inspirations, as it uses the technique of merging images together and blurring them to make them work together as if they are one photo. I feel that is effective as it gives a sense of the danger that is ahead. The colours used within the poster are also symbolic of this. For instance josh is placed in quite suttle, realistic colours whereas myself (Kerry) has a more deep red glow. Therefore, the red represents the evil that is going to be seen from the character during the extract.
We decided to place a quote from the Guardian as well as the characters names at the top of the poster as we found most horror posters tend to locate their names in this position and also reference established media's such as The Times, Guardian or other institutions. Also, the text located at the bottom of the poster is essential for the layout of the poster as all posters include information regarding the production and distribution of the film.
