To further Advertise my experimental film, I aim to create a Image cover for my DVD disc case.
Keeping in with a similar theme to my advertising poster, I have used one of the screenshots of an exciting motion being captured in my film. Similarly to my poster, I want to display the theme of the film without giving too much away. I feel that using these plain black and white colours, that boldness will appeal to an audience aswell as the colour scheme representing the boldness and impact of my dogs behaviour in the film.
I felt that by cropping the image, I could achieve a better focus upon the subject. This would relate to my filming style of having a still camera allowing my dog to move out of the focused frame.
In this image, I've worked on the image using a blurring tool. I felt that this helped to provide focus upon the main subject being my dog. Although the ilm itself is not affected in the same way i.e. blurring, black and white; the advertisement has got to initially pin point the theme and signify the main subject. For example: 'Cleo From 5 to 7' by Waldemar Dabrowski and 'Made for the Romanian Western film The Prophet, The Gold, and the Transylvanians' by Mieczyslaw Wasilewski, the images contain alot of contrast in terms of dark shadows and black aswell as images that suggest the main character or general subject matter of the film.
With my piece, I hope that by blurring out the background and enhancing the contrast of my dog, I can signify that she and her behaviour are the most dominant on the advert.
Continuing from the previous development, I have added text to inform the potential viewer of the film title and purpose.
I chose the font style based on the idea of a sketchy, non - technical domestic environment. I feel that the font is quite playful, so it integrates with my theme. The colour of the text was equally as important to get right. As the image is black and white, I broke up the different parts of information with different colours to try and make it clear, bold and obvious as to what it is that I'm trying to show.
