Drafting and planning

After researching into drama film posters i started to draft up ideas for the tagline which is prominent in many posters.

I decided the three line style would suit my poster as it reflects the simplistic yet dramatic plot of my film, short bursts that are clear, catchy and quite chilling, intriguing any readers.


I felt 'one killer' might have been a bit typical/obvious of a drama, so i started with 'one family' instead which implies they are the main focus for the film, giving my audience insight into the themes in the film.


I then used 'one enemy' instead as it suggests there is more to him than just a killer but instead draws a link between them and the family. I then end on Inquisition, effective as its the film title but gives insight into what happens, otherwise it would just be stating that there is a family and an enemy.


I thought about using 'two enemies' to convey the idea that the protagonist was fighting on two different fronts, one the killer and the other, the Auntie, possibly hinting at some unison between them.


However i felt the repetition of 'one' was much more effective, especially since the killer is a much greater threat than the auntie character
