Conventions of Horror Poster Magazines:
Usually Low Lighting
It's usually a black background and the color scheme would be black, grey or red and the use of the colors signify death and blood so that the audience know that this is a horror film.
Shots used are mostly close up shot's of certain feature's of the character's face or disfigurements of a character's face usually the killer. But they may use long shots of a dark person's figure/shadow.
For my poster, I will include low lighting and I have decided to either use both main protagonist and antagonist as the poster or just have the antagonist alone. So that I can show the disfigurements of his face. But I may just have a medium shot of the main protagonist looking afraid and a dark figure behind her.
I have to include a billing block, image, name of the poster, release date, actor's name's and age rating.
