This is my Poster I chose the wallpaper background to represent the houses which are main parts of the story the Witches house and the house of Hansel and Gretel themselves. Behind the wallpaper were it is peeling away is the forest in which Hansel and Gretel get lost, the reason I had it hidden behind the wallpaper represents the classic fairy-tale is only just covered by the modern setting essentially it is the same story and the true magic of the original lies just beneath the surface. The same goes for the silhouettes of Hansel and gretel I scaned these images from a book and darkened them using Photoshop this was to also show the connection with the original story also I didn't feel showing the actors here would add as big of an impact the darkened figures show an air of mystery and loss as in the story they are both lost. In terms of the font that is inspired by Tim Burton. I thought when we were coming up with the idea of the film that this would be a very Burtonesque story to do so in picking a font I chose one inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas.
