Editing - Film Poster

We used PhotoScape and Paint for the editing of our poster as we felt it worked well whilst doing the magazine cover. We were also therefore used to the program now and had discovered a lot of features that were of great use to us. 

Whilst editing the poster we found that the writing that was available on PhotoScape was far too small for the title and date in order to stand out vibrantly. Therefore we had to create the title on paint in a size and font that we wanted. We had to print screen the photo on PhotoScape at 100% and then paste onto paint. We then could add writing at a larger size. Then we added it back into PhotoScape and aligned it with the original. 

We also made our rating box In paint also as we did not have the resources on PhotoScape. We then saved it as if it were a single picture and added it onto PhotoScape as an image. 

 This is a print screen showing the changes regarding the lighting we could change. We changed the darken and deepen effects mainly, along with slight brightness. We also used Sharpen. The black background we achieved really emphasised the main character and text. 

We also used an effect called film effect - cinema - middle. This gives it a tint of colour and we feel adds to the atmosphere of the image. This does make it slightly more cinematic and realistic and enhance the shadows which just adds to the psychological effect. 

 Here we used Crop, as again we wanted our main picture as just half of her to convey her half self and her fading away from normality. Therefore we used the crop tool to crop freely, we had to make is just centre of her face to get exactly half. We then saved the cropped area.

We also wanted to ensure that every time that we were saving we were saving at high quality to ensure we got the best and most effective image we can.
