Film Poster

 Final Poster

· I wanted the poster to be aesthetic– this will give attention to the poster and delivering the message to the audience. The messages should portray that genre the movie is going to be.

· The poster is focused– It only have one message, it is simple and communicates one message. The black and white portrays the horror/ thriller genre of the movie, this perhaps suggests death and supernatural through just the colour. Overall there is one focal image, which is mysterious, this leaves the viewer asking questions and wanting to see the film when it is released.

· I believe that my poster is ordered and organised– the simplicity should be obvious to the audience and clear for them to read and understand. The Large Heading, is the title of the movie, I wanted the font to be large and clear so it is a signifier for the poster. Another prominent convention is the focal image, it is clear and large, it stands out and stands out the most from the other convention. The Colour scheme is black, white and red, by using these colours they portray danger, death and superstition. The writing on my poster is mainly red, this red stands out and gives the reader in hierarchy of information.

This is my completed poster for my film. This would be one design which would be used to advertisers my Movie Release. After researching into recent film posters I used similar convention to represent a poster which would be used. The conventions which I considered vital for advertisement were, The film title, The date of release or ‘coming soon’, a focal image, Actors names, Film Website, and directors and editors in small print.

At the bottom, right of my poster I included the restriction of my film, it states that ‘Under 17 requires accompanying by an adult guardian’ This was a convention which was appropriate for a poster and is a legal requirement for higher rated movies.
