The morgue scene was definitely the most impressive in terms of cinematography and mise-en-scene, hence why I chose it for my poster image. Sam and I both ensured we used the cameras to take photos as just relying on the footage to take screenshots of is risky. Before the shoot I planned a couple of potential images I wanted, varying from pictures of the victim, pathologist and mise-en-scene.
Luckily we had plenty of time during the shoot in which to take photos, and I was personally very happy with the results. I swapped between using the natural light and our artificial lights, experimenting to see which looked best. In the end I went for the artificial lighting as when placed in a specific place it can create shadows. Initially I planned for my poster to contain the victim and the pathologist/serial killer, but upon reviewing the images of Luke I decided they would look better alone. The shadows created made him look like a dark and mysterious character, and the heart in his hands not only connoted the genre and made the poster interesting therefore attracting our primary target audience, but it also links with the fact his serial killer name is the Knave of Hearts.
