portrait poster design — Centered composition, symmetrical layout, top title

A photorealistic horror movie poster shows an adult woman pressing an ornate skull-shaped whistle to her lips, set against a pitch-black void. The frame is dominated by near-total darkness, an inky black background that swallows the edges and corners. A faint cool vignette deepens the black toward the corners. Across the upper third, a large blood-red serif uppercase title reads "TITLE", its letters sharp against the black. In the center of the frame, an adult woman in her late twenties with dark brown bangs and closed eyes holds a small carved skull up to her mouth. Dark strands of hair fall across her forehead, nearly touching her closed lids. Her face is softly lit from above, warm skin tones emerging from the surrounding dark. She wears a dark charcoal jacket with visible stitching, brass buttons, and a zipper at the collar. The jacket's matte fabric absorbs the light, its seams picked out in faint gray thread. A glimpse of a cream-colored knitted sleeve shows beneath the jacket at her wrist. Her hands rise from black knit cuffs, one finger painted with chipped dark-red nail polish and wearing a thin gold band. The knit cuffs are ribbed and slightly frayed at the edges. The skull whistle is a weathered bronze-and-ochre artifact, its dome etched with fine concentric lines. Tiny carved glyphs ring the skull's brow, too stylized to read. One of its hollow eye sockets weeps a thin trail of dark red down the cheekbone. Over her left shoulder, a pale ghostly face with hollow dark eyes looms out of the darkness, half-dissolved in shadow. Its mouth hangs slightly open in a silent scream. On the right side of the frame, a pale clawed hand with long dark nails grips her shoulder from behind. Its fingers are unnaturally long, the knuckles sharp and pale. The claws press into the dark fabric of her jacket. The ghostly figures remain blurred and indistinct, their edges melting into the black background. Only the woman and the skull hold sharp focus in the frame. The lighting is a single soft key from above and slightly in front, carving the woman's face and the skull out of the blackness while the background falls to total darkness. Overall, the poster centers the single figure in tight symmetrical balance, in a black, blood-red, and weathered-bronze palette rendered in stark photorealism, with a hushed, dread-laden ritual mood.
