Movie Poster Promo

Annabelle is the main girl in our movie trailer, she is a young girl who lives on the country side. Annabelle is a sweet, quiet, shy girl, one day she finds an old picture in the attic of an old abandoned house, the picture has a ghost in it. Annabelle is played by Cara Griffin, Cara is a perfect actor for Annabelle. Annabelle get's kidnapped by the ghost as she's about to tell her parent's about it. Julie is Annabelle's complete opposite, she is loud, fun and all she ever wants to do is go on adventures. I play Julie, I am a little louder and I like to have fun. Our last character is The Ghost Of 229th street, the ghost lives in the old abandoned house on 229th street. The ghost doesn't want anyone to know about his existence so he kidnaps Annabelle, when she is about to tell her parent's about him. 

Our title is 229th Street, it is called this because the ghost is from the abandoned subdivision that used to be called 229th Street. When the Ghost of 229th Street kidnaps Annabelle he brings her to 229th Street. I included the actors as well as the name of the character they play, I also included some of the things critic's said about the movie. I also included the actresses and the roles they play in the movie. Here is my progress so far I have made the font of the title look like a address that you would find on the side of a house/ building.  On my title I also added the effect drop shadow and that makes it look like the words are coming off the page and creating a shadow.  I also included the date the movie is coming to theaters. Kerning can be pretty easy but it is also hard because you just have eye it and see if it looks right.  I made the letters in "Scream Studios" really far apart so it looks like it does in a lot of different movie trailers and movie posters.



I used the drop shadow layer affect on the main picture and on the title. The drop shadow makes it look like the words and the picture are coming off the page. It gives it character and makes it look really cool.  I also included the stroke layer affect on the title, the critiques, and the actors and actresses. The stroke makes the white font easier to read and it also makes the poster look really nice. I cut out the ghost form another picture and added it to this picture, this made it so that we had the ghost hiding and it looks like it's going to scare Anabelle at any second. I also made the ghost brighter, it was really dark and would've been really hard to see.
