Client: Personal Project
Horror movies are some of my favorite things to watch and read more about. During the quarantine of 2020, I continued to watch more and loved the psychology behind horror and what makes something scary.

Objective:
I wanted to create a series of fake horror movie posters that embodied the feelings of dread I had been feeling while being trapped at my childhood home.

Solution:
All photos were shot on my own and with the help of family members as models. Because my home isn’t inherently “scary” I made use of shadows and movement to evoke a sense of unease and eeriness. In some of the posters the figures are blacked out or surrounded by darkness to make use of the horror theory that the scariest things are the things you can’t see or anticipate seeing. Letting the brain make up what it would be afraid of seeing instead of directly showing them.
