The second and highly most important element of the film poster was the portrait of our female protagonist which is intended to be the primary focus and take up the majority of the space within the poster. To ensure that we could illuminate the emotion found in the actresses face, we made her wear minimal makeup so that the sadness and grief evident in her face was clear. The brick wall was used as a backdrop so that it would be easier to remove when editing with Adobe photoshop once we had decided on our final background. This same reason is why we framed our protagonist in the centre of the frame, so that the entire outline of her head and shoulders could easily be cropped with the magic lasso tool. The weather was mildly windy (due to it being photographed in winter) which allowed for our shots where the hair is covering her face to look natural. The natural lighting that highlighted her face, was a means for us to ensure our film poster matched the convention of our genre- social realism. We also had her wearing the same outfit as she did in our teaser for continuity. The straight expression is also necessary due to the serious topic of our teaser trailer.
