Halftoning my photograph

Having received feedback from my peer group and found direction to proceed forward with, I have chosen to commence with firstly creating a digital mock up of what I'd like my final screen print to look like, then finally to create the negative image which I will be taking to the screen print workshop.
 I began with my large scale 300 dpi image in photoshop, and following a guide [http://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-Halftone-Effect-in-Adobe-Photoshop-7] I used a method to turn my photograph into a halftone image.

Experimenting with the DPI, Frequency and angle creates varied results for the final design product, which I can experiment with later in the future.
This is the final photograph after it has been turned into a grey scale, bitmap Halftone image, this could now be used to create an almost photo identical screen print, a method which I will use when creating my movie poster.
