FILM POSTER 1

Follows the codes and

conventions of film poster

making by listing

institutional information near

the bottom of the page. This

text includes some of the

people who helped create

the film and who funded it.

The film’s website to

encourage people to log

onto it and create more

interest

These are the main actors

who star in the film. They are

listed in large font to

encourage the fan base of

these actors to go and see the

film.

Largest font dedicated to the

name of the film as this is the

most important piece of

information on the poster. The

font it is written in suggests

that it is an action film as it

appears to have been quickly

written down, and also some

psychological aspects could

be involved as the font is all

over the place and

inconsistent.

Black background is

used to draw a focus

onto the content in the

poster.

The image has a frame

of an old fashioned

printed picture. This

suggests to the

audience that the man

in the picture is either

being spied on or is

wanted by the police

because of his actions

during the film at some

point.

Images are of the main

characters in the film

and this encourages the

actor’s fan base to go

and watch the film.

The man looks

focused showing that

he has something on

his mind, perhaps a

mission that he

needs to carry out.

The dark colour used in this film poster suggest that

their is going to be a lot of drama throughout the film

and is going to be extremely action packed.

The main image of a picture being inside a picture which

is inside a picture etc, shows that it is going to be a film

that makes you think and may cause a lot of confusion.

On the other hand it could mean that the characters are

getting into each other’s heads.

FILM POSTER 2

Tattoos all over his body showing

that a lot has happened during his

life and he wants to take note of it.

The main one that stands out reads

‘murdered your wife’, so this shows

that this is going to play a major

part in the storyline.

Image and the warm colours

suggest that the characters are

perhaps in a relationship and are

very close.

The name of the film suggests

to the audience that one of the

characters has lost someone

very close to them and they

have objects that constantly

remind them of them.

Strange symbols

poster. Some are

like mazes which

may indicate a hint

of irritation or
