The very first step was to open the picture and make it the background of the poster. I did this by simply pressing ‘File’ then ‘Open’.

I then added the text: film title, the tagline and the date line to follow film poster conventions.

I then added the billing box by copy and pasting it from my website since that is the new and improved and final billing box.

The next step was adding the lead actor names. I added the surgeon’s and the victim’s names as they’re the lead actors and thus followed conventions as other film posters only mention the main actors on the poster.

I then added the url for the website in case the audience wanted to get more info about the film.

The next step was adding the film company logos. I used the same ones I put on my website: Dolby Digital and THX. I got both logos off Google and had to remove excess white space around the Dolby Digital logo. Finally, I adjusted the brightness, contrast and levels to get a darker tint as I believe it looks more effective than the original image background colour.

As can be seen below, the font of the poster of the film title has been changed from the original and now matches the website. Both productions now look consistent with one another and strengths the overall branding.
