For my poster I have chosen the colour scheme of red, black and white - following the same ideas as Hitchcock. Therefore I knew I wanted my main film title to be red, fitting with the colour scheme and stading out moreso than the other information. I thought up the title of "INSTINCT" as it is short and doesn't give much away. It also relates to the theme of a mothers' instinct within the plot concerning a baby's cries.
