Monster shot

I wanted to get a shot of the monster in our trailer because it would make it more obvious what the narrative was. I also thought that seeing the shot of the monster would make it easier to link it with the poster and the front cover of the magazine without having it look like they both were from different films. My first idea was to have a shot of the character doing her make-up in the bathroom mirror, and then the reflection of the monster and then the character turns around to reveal there is no monster there, this didn't work very well when I practised, so I decided to have the shot in the bathroom still, but using candles as it creates an eerie atmosphere. Then for the character to walk away from the mirror and to see the monster in the mirror, then pan around to show a close up of the monsters face for a second.  Here are a few shots of what I took.
