We are an independent film production company looking for our next short film poster design. We need a standard size poster design which evokes ambiguity as well as curiosity. It needs to be slick and movie like. We would like to have both actors feature of the poster.
Title of film: Dead Therapy
Short Film
Genre: Thriller
Tag line: It's not how you get in....but how you get out
Synopsis:
Two lovers arrive in a room without any recollection of how they arrived. Will haunted memories seal their fate? Or will they decide to bravely face the nightmares beyond?
(beyond the walls are zombie like creatures which we only capture a glimpse of, the story is more about the relationship of the couple and their past they have to address and face)
(We have used the font Mensch for the title in the past for concept art on this project and would like this font used for the poster)
Bottom of poster credits (please refer to mainstream Hollywood films and how they structure this):
