Secret Window DVD Cover

I found this DVD cover very inspirational when researching ideas for our own DVD cover, as did the rest of the group.
We liked the way there is two separate pictures as one, and it does not look strange they are merged together. We tried to use a similar technique when creating our own DVD cover, where the main focus is a close-up of our main actor, and there is also another picture of possibly our murder, faded in the corner. However a close-up of my face did not bring about the same results as the same shot of Johhny Depp's face. My boyish good looks just drew too much attention away from what was meant to be a shot conveying thriller. Also Johnny Depp's lawyers were worried that our DVD cover with my face as the main shot, could make Johnny look rather inferior, and they didnt want his image being damaged.
