CHATBOT: How may I assist you today?

CHATBOT: When I started off this FMP, I knew I wanted to take the digital path. I have always been drawn to digital creative work such as Photoshop and editing, so I thought it would be a good fit for me. Plus, one example of this path was a horror-themed Toy Story, which immediately caught my interest. Before diving into my project, I knew research was crucial. I focused on finding out what would resonate with the poster's audience, which primarily consisted of those who grew up watching Toy Story. Through online discussions and message boards, I discovered that many people had a strong sense of nostalgia for the franchise, which gave me a better idea of how to approach my horror concept. I quickly realized that Woody and Buzz were the most recognizable characters from Toy Story. After further research, I decided to find an existing Toy Story poster to edit, as I lacked the skills for animation or drawing. I selected the original poster from the first film, as its classic animation style would provide a slightly unsettling effect for younger audiences accustomed to modern, high-quality production. Once I had the poster ready in Photoshop, I began making small changes that would gradually transform it into a horror piece. I started by removing Buzz Lightyear's eyes and darkening them completely, adding an ominous touch to his character. From there, I removed the background and made it look like Buzz was taking Woody into a dark, unknown void. I also added a blood spatter to the scene to imply that something tragic had occurred. My goal was to give the impression that Buzz had committed an act of violence against the other toys in the room. To achieve this, I found stock images of blood and distorted them to make sure they blended seamlessly into the poster. I then added blood to Woody's face and hand, suggesting that he had fought back before ultimately meeting his demise. Looking back at the original poster and then at my edited version, I was pleased with the darker tone I had created. However, finishing the digital edit was just the first part of my project. I still needed to showcase it in public places. I started by using the poster at a cinema location, where it caught the attention of many moviegoers. I also created a shorter poster that I put on the side of a bus. This poster used the Toy Story logo and added blood to it with the text "Coming Soon" above it. In conclusion, I was very satisfied with the outcome of my FMP. While there were certainly challenge...
