New Company Title and Logo Ideas

We have chosen to recreate our company logo and title to improve our image, make us more professional and make us seem more like a production company for horror films. This decision will lead to us changing the brand logo and therefore we will have to update previous work to improve the quality and make our products more recognised.

We have narrowed our choices down to a select few ideas. The first is to use a skull as our main logo (as this is a common image in the horror genre) and to therefore name the company around it. From this we have came up with the title Triple Skull Production. The logo will contain three skulls which in the opening to films could laugh, talk or stay still as effects are applied to it.

The second idea is to use the card queen of spades and to names the company something along the lines of Dark Queen Productions. The brand logo would contain a traditional queen of spades card and would mostly use a black and white colours scheme depending on the film and whether it collaborates with another production company.

Our final idea is to combine the two and replace the spades symbol on the card to a skull making the queen of skulls and possibly making the company name Queen of Skulls Pictures, Entertainment or Production. The logo would be similar to the queen of spades idea except it would replace all spades symbols on the card with skulls. If we were to have any type of movement at the opening of the film, the card could flips, the image on the card could move or an effect would just be applied to the picture.

Detailed Poster Research

We have looked at numerous posters in the horror genre and put them on to a pinterest board so that we can analyse them individually using the 500 character maximum provided in the description boxes. We have duplicated certain pins so that we can continue our analyses onto them- giving a more informative description of the posters.

We specifically chose horror films that have similar plots to our movie and contain the same features such as old/large buildings for the seeting and/or ghosts (mainly ones of children). We did this so our research would be valid in helping to create our own poster and so that we can extract features and conventions of our sub-genre of horror.
