Target audience feedback for poster idea/magazine/trailer - Graphs and findings

Final Poster: tools.

Here are a few aspects of my poster, which I created on Microsoft word:

Title:

Tagline:

Rating certificate:

Main image of poster.

I decided upon which design to go for and began editing the main image that would go in the centre of the poster.

Here are two different versions I edited and the feedback I received:

1) I experimented with the vivid colour tool under the burn tool options and found that it accentuates the veins in the eyes.

• The colours do not stand out enough to make it look scary
• The skin needs to look smoother and the tone more even

2) I combined the vivid colour tool with a burn tool to make the eyes stand out more.

• Not realistic, but it looks frightening

I had drawn out a rough sketches of what I had in mind for my final poster, in order to take images of them and get an idea of how they would look for my poster.
