The website 'Dafont' was used to find the font to use on my film poster. Birth Of A Hero was chosen and is the predominant text on the film poster. Of all the fonts, my group and I found that this font was the best font to use on both ancillary texts. I like how there appears to be splatters in the text. Having the odd splatters in the texts became a challenge when wanting to fill them with different colours but with precision and patience, it was done. In Photoshop, my group and I came up with the decision to change the colour of the text for all of them. I wanted February 14th to be in the colour red as well as the title of the film and the website. The tagline 'evil never dies' got changed to white in the Photoshop process. The font looked a lot better in red and white rather than black, It would've been complicated to have the font in black as it would've clashed with the background but having white and red font allowed there to be a colour scheme on the movie poster. Black, white and red are colour schemes used mainly for the horror genre. The red used for the release date, title and website help make the text stand out, Colour is what would draw readers attention directly towards it. Using the colour red with the effect of splatter imprints that is given off by the font is effective in creating the illusion of blood splatter without having to create one from scratch. To fill in the font I used the paint bucket tool and took the colour red then filled it in gradually. I then took the white colour and used the same paint bucket tool to make the text change to white.
