Here is the development of my magazine front cover. First I began with a striking image of the main protagonist and then decided on the theme of black and white with a red font which would be aesthetically pleasing and stand out on the shelves. I slowly and carefully layered different effects on to the front cover and I made sure I featured details, which I feel give a more professional effect.

Film Magazine Analysis
Here are two videos with a voiceover of me analysing two film magazine covers. The things I learnt from the analysis are that I need to inculde my main protagonist from the film and feature them on their own. A close-up shot appears more effective. Use of a linking font and theme are also essential!

Development of Teaser Poster
Final Draft of Teaser Poster
Above is the final draft of my teaser poster. Using the font I chose for my products, I wrote the name of the Film and the date it would be released. Then the slogan at the top of the poster. As it's a teaser poster it contains very little information unlike a normal poster. I like the outcome of it as I think it's eye catching and effective.
This the working progress of my teaser trailer. This is the image I decided to use in the end as I feel it will work well with my target market. I've edited the image above in photoshop to make it more effective. Firstly I made a blank document (international paper) then filled the background in black. I then cropped my original image so only half of the zombie face was viewable, shrouding the character in a certain amount of mystery. I then blended the face with the background using the eraser tool on a low hardness and opacity, so only the actual face was visible, rather than the hair, neck and clothing. Once I was happy with outcome I began to edit the image using different processes. Firstly I made the image black and white. I then heightened the saturation and made the contrast brighter. This gave the light parts of the image lighter and the same with the dark parts.
