Poster ideas

As we are all aware that our music video needs a poster as a technique to attract the audience and combine with the CD cover, we have all come up with several ideas in order to make our poster as affective as possible and hopefully portray the message we are trying to reveal through out video and CD cover.

The most obvious and most relevant technique we are looking to use is both of our characters as an element to illustrate the theme of the video, which in this case is the conflict in happening in their relationship. Although not decided yet, we are assuming to make it this "relationship conflict" as obvious as possible through their facial expression, body language and mise en scene features such as costume and location. What these elements will then leed us to do next is decide what colour will correspond well with theme of our sound track and the image of our two characters. One other of the idea considered is having both of our characters standing next to each other but having a line in between them reinforced by colours to show their personality depending on the side their standing e.g right bright lighting for the female and darker lighting for the male character.

Basic information also has to be implied on the poster e.g name of the song, when it came out, logo of the production company, people who took part in the formation of the product etc. What would be considered as a challenging task as we are making this poster is how we decide to make it appear in order to make it appealing enough to gain attention from a wide audience and our main target audience which are more likely to be teenagers and young adults from from the age of 16 to 25. What has inspired us to come up with what we have come up with is the background used whilst filming in the park. Here we see fallen tree leafs and other factors such as murky weather, which all sums up to present a desolate and lonely image, which once again corresponds with the theme.

Other than that we have also been researching how we can make this poster. Heres where we have been looking as a resource ;
