Once I selected the website background, I proceeded to erasing the pre-set features of the template and used the icons on the left to navigate around the editing options e.g. selecting a new image as the background, similarly placed. Our website background we decided to keep black and plain because not only is it subtle but suitable for the 'feel' and running theme we are trying to create for our poster etc. Understandably I realise that black used in this respect would typically be used for a horror movie perhaps and indeed we are making a 'psychological drama', so I think black can also be associated with 'mystery' and even the 'unknown'. These are definitely themes linked to the character and plot surrounding our character Matt.

For the background aside from the colour, I placed this rather close-up and focused image of our main protagonist, Matt. We chose this image because it is prominent and attention-grabbing, and we thought it was also quite eerie, in the sense that Matt is looking directly at the audience, direct eye contact. The image has been edited to create an effect, to make Matt appear almost isolated and the dark surroundings along with his solemn facial expression ties into this effect well.
(Adding the background Image)
Continuing to replace the pre-set features, I then added the movie logo/banner which we intended to emulate a 'Facebook' banner but instead it says 'alternet' our movie title and in the searchbar it says our movie slogan 'become your fantasy' (which is echoed in our trailer).
