Development of poster ideas (DanScans)

Evening all.

Right, well. After playing around with the scanner at the weekend, Dan and I have spent the afternoon trying out a couple of ideas along the line of poster development. So here's the original scans:

 

These two were keeping in with the theme of hands, and trying to get across a feeling of desperation or anguish. We then had the idea of adding in scissors as a prop, to symbolise the 'cut' in the main character and his two alter-egos.

 

 Seeing as Dan is the main character in the trailer though, we thought we could use his face in the pictures too... The general feel is still the idea of being trapped, though these scans are almost reflective. The open palms also suggests, to me at least, a sort of childishness - like palms against a window - looking out to the big wide world from somewhere within? An open palm also carries the connotation of surrendering, or vulnerability.
