Spooks, Specters, and Ghosts

The final Double Feature Friday installment of the Horror Movie October graphic design calendar card series is two rickety found-footage films featuring spooks, specters, and ghosts, The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity. 

"The Blair Witch Project"
"Paranormal Activity"

I love found-footage films, and these two are great. The director cut of Paranormal Activity is absolutely fantastic. Jumps, scares, and frights! Oh my! 

With this piece I wanted to tone down some of the bright colors, but bring in the red and orange for contrast against the black and white, and the blue on the calendar page to emphasize a ghostly feel. Mwwaaa ha ha ha ha ha! 

Check out the trailers, and then hunt down the films. 

As always there is more to come...

Raise The Roof

Today's Two Buck Tuesday installment of the Horror Movie October graphic design calendar card series is the found-footage cautionary tale about overdosing on scare houses, The Houses October Built. 

"The Houses October Built"

This fantastic lo-fi found-footage film from the producers of Insidious and Paranormal Acitivity,  starts harmless enough, but before you know it the characters are popping in and out of random scare rooms throughout their lives. Plus, it includes footage from actual scare houses which is always a delight to see if you can't make it to one. 

For this piece I attempted to capture the essence of rickety architecture and vibrant life interspersed throughout the changes colors that accompany fall all laid over imagery from the film. 

Check out the trailer, and then hunt down the film. 

As always there is more to come...
