Planning: Poster design

Having looked at short film posters I have been able to see how the films are marketed and one of the biggest parts of the making a film successful is the use of a poster.

Here i have designed two posters which could be used for the promotion of my short film.

The first design is of the main character of the film in the centre of the picture and the idea of the character being split between two sets of clothing, I have chosen to use this image because I feel it will give the audience something to ask when seeing the poster before the film comes out. The poster gives them an incite into the film itself and what may happen in the film. 

The second design is of the main character and the reflection in the sunglasses of the character. The character is in the centre of the poster and this is because he the centre of the short film. I have thought about how the character can be seen on the two lights which he is in the film.
