Brief de Design de Poster

I would like a mock movie poster designed for a film that is not yet made (currently in script status). This artwork is to help attract interest in the project.

The plot of the film:

After Maurice Cavanaugh’s funeral, six family members arrive at his mansion to spend the night in anticipation of the will being read out the next morning. They are: Lizzy, Maurice’s young, blonde widow, his brother Sonny, Sonny’s son Tommy and wife Cynthia and the deceased’s son, James with his girlfriend Sue. Philippe, Lizzy and Maurice's 'house waiter' is also present.
During the evening, illicit affairs and tragic secrets come to light- Cynthia is pregnant, while Sue had an abortion- James had an affair with Lizzy and although they haven't been seeing each other the two are secretly still very much in love...
Nonetheless, all is semi- well, until three of Tommy’s gambling 'buddies' show up and join the party. During a 'friendly' card game it is revealed that Tommy owes them money via a gambling debt which he is planning on paying back from the inheritance... when it is revealed that there is to be no money and the dead man was broke, mayhem breaks out, leading to violence and murder.

I had an idea for the poster which is a picture of the mansion, perhaps with an iron gate with 'Cavanaugh' or initials on it, and perhaps a raven or similar to represent both the idea of scavengers and as a symbol of death.
This was just something that sprung to mind, however, and I am completely open to anything else... I am happy for you to come up with something much cleverer.
I would also be open to an element of card game to be in there somewhere.

Other elements that could be used are cocaine, booze, red fingernails...

The feel of it is between dark comedy and thriller or film noir... there is a lot of coarse language and of course, later in the piece, violence. Guns and knives are weapons of choice.

Text wise I would like obviously the title:

Scavengers in Mourning

and this log line:

where there's a will, there's a play...

Also, my production company name:

Katarina's Infamy

(either 'Katarina's Infamy presents' or 'a Katarina's Infamy production' or 'a film by Katarina's Infamy' etc. however you think it fits best)

I am also attaching my logo. If it fits into the design, great. If it sticks out and looks daft, it's not necessary to have. But it can be integrated or small in a corner somewhere.

I do not have a full cast, so no photos of faces but... if you want to include people obscured by shadows or smaller in the background or seen from the back that is totally fine.

Thank you so much for reading!! And hopefully this sparks your interest enough to get involved. :)

Marché(s) Cible(s)

This is definitely an R-Rated movie, a lot of 'bad' language, violence, drinking, cocaine usage, sex (not explicit, no nudity). It's aimed at mainly young adults, a film-noir-esque thriller with an edge.
