In preparation for writing the review of Cumha, I read movie reviews, primarily from Empire Magazine. Movie reviews seem to exist in their own genre; they're borderline informal but still incredibly factual and precise, so reading as many as I could was a good idea, as it helped me gauge the tone for the Cumha review better.
We did our photoshoot outdoors, surrounded by nature, as The Girl is shown in Scene Two. The weather was lovely, so we used natural lighting to get shots of shadows across The Girl's face, as shadows are a universal symbol of trickery and subterfuge.
For the actual layout of the review, we used Adobe InDesign, as it gave us more options for the layout than Photoshop would have. InDesign allowed us to create a double-page spread, and also gave us a selection of fonts to choose from, to really enhance the professional appearance. It was tricky to get the hang of at first, so I googled plenty of tutorials to help me, and eventually, it became fairly similar to creating the poster.
We did a photoshoot with Ríbh for the double page spread, and our decision to use our leading lady instead of Michael came from the desire to keep the plot of Cumha as ambiguous as possible.

This is a trial we did, but the overall layout had too many blank spaces.
