1. For our poster we took pictures against a
green screen. We chose one of the major
storylines from the “Hilltop Farm” trailer
Photography for
Poster
2. We started to think who the
poster should look...
In the storyline of these 3 characters Archie is
the “player” who is cheating on his girlfriend
(Bella) with a girl who doesn't care about
anything but herself not about the damage she
is causing (Sambuca)
We wanted the poster to look powerful and
for the audience to know what is happening
even from just looking at the picture and not
seeing the trailer.
Archie will be in the centre anchoring the poster as
Bella and Sambuca will be either side land further
back than him, he crossed his arms to make him
look more powerful although he has control over
these 2 girls, he has a smug look on his face
suggesting to the audience he is not bothered
about the hurt he has caused.
Archie's Clothing
-He is wearing casual clothing
-The t-shirt has half a girl on either side of it
suggesting to the audience he doesn't know
which girl to choose on either side of him.
-Gelled hair showing that he takes care of
his appearance
3. Bella's Costume...
The costume and makeup
had to represent to the
audience what kind of Plain little make-up,
character they are. makes her look innocent
No fake tan to look natural Straight natural hair
and to show she doesn't
need to make a massive
effort to look pretty
The white top represents
her to the audience as
an “Angel”
4. Positioning...
We took some shots of Bella
straight on looking at the camera
with a sad emotion on her face to
look hurt.
We then thought it would be
better is Bella turned herself
slightly to the left so when we
put the poster together she will
be turned slightly towards Archie
so it anchors him
5. Positioning...
In this shot Bella would be looking
over in disgust at Sambuca, again
this will represent to the audience
that they are fighting over Archie.
Another idea was for Bella to look
over to the left but while have the
rest of her body still front onto the
camera and slightly turned to the
left.
6. Sambucas costume...
Allot of black eye make-up to
Sambucas costume makes it make her look unnatural
clear to the audience straight
away that she puts in allot of Red Lipstick and a Red top
effort in her appearance makes it a clear sign of
everyday “danger” the audience will
be able to realise just from
The feather bower which seeing this colour that she is
hangs of one shoulder gives going to cause allot of
the impression to the problems.
audience that she likes
getting attention of males. We chose Sambuca to wear
red lipstick and a red top to
By wearing this she makes it make her resemble and
clear that she doesn't care “devil” and for Bella to be in
what anyone things about a white top resembling an
her “Angel”
Jewellery showing she cares
about material things Black-combed hair makes it
clear she took a while to get
ready
7. Positioning...
Her facial expression looks like
she is not bothered about
anything.
Sambuca is turned slightly to
the right but still has her body
turned straight in towards the
camera.
When we Photoshop the 3 characters in
the pictures Bella and Sambuca will be
anchoring Archie as they are either side
of him and Archie will be in the middle
slightly in front of them to make him
look bigger and dominating
8. This shot is just another idea
we could use on the poster...
The red lipstick she is holding looking
very confident represents to the
audience that all she cares about is
makeup, looking good and herself no
one else.
We tried to do another shot
with the lipstick showing that
she doesn't care about anyone
else apart from looking good,
but i think this picture doesn't
draw the audience in, as she has
no eye-contact.
9. Contrasts Between...
Bella
Sambuca Bella has her arms
Facial expression contrasts crossed to show the
Bella as she looks like she audience she is angry
is not bothered about and unhappy
what she's done. ( shows
no emotion) Her facial expression is
contrasting Sambucas, Bella
is scowling at the camera
Sambuca is holding a piece
and looks bothered about
of her hair this suggests to something, while Sambuca
the audience that she is only looks bothered about
seductive, confident and herself!
self-centred
Bella is wearing very
Sambucas clothes are casual clothing and isn't
hanging off her which gives showing any flesh
the impression she wants to showing the contrast of
show as much flesh as that she has respect for
possible for male attention herself by not flaunting
her body on show.
Total Contrasts in costume
Tanned
Pale
-Sambuca looks dressed up
for just a normal day with a
massive amount of effort
- Bella looks casual and
natural.
10. Ideas...
We tried another idea instead of photo
shoping Bella and Sambuca either side of
Archie, they could both be on the right
side of the poster and Archie still the
main character of the poster
Archie would be looking like he still
hast to choose between them and the
audience can see the contrast as they
are back to back
Sambuca looks seductive
Bella looks angry and upset
11. Ideas...
We tried another idea of them Bella is just looking at
looking at each other in disgust, Sambuca in disgust, her
this makes it clear again to the eyes are looking towards
audience that they dislike each towards the flesh she has
other on show with her feather
pulled off her shoulder
Sambuca still has a
piece of hair trying to
look sexy but while
giving evil looks over to
Bella
Sambuca still has her
red lipstick in her hand,
showing again how she
just cares about how
she looks and herself
