The document discusses various conventions used in film posters, including displaying the film name prominently in bold font, using close-up images of characters to emphasize viewers, and including taglines to convey the film's message. It also notes that some posters in different countries directly copy each other's designs without being creatively distinguished, and comments on examples that feature elements representing the film's theme, genre, or storyline through the use of colors, images, and character representations.

1. Film Posters.

2. The main name is
bold and black. Font
is big and divided in
places. The name is
on top and the main
masthead is being
divided.
A close up image is one of the
conventions of a film posters, as it
emphasises the viewers.
However, the uses of metals
makes them questions them selves
about the story behind the film.
I liked this design more as it
provides the idea of using
art, on posters. The use of
props links to the storyline.
Also, the idea of dark on one
side and light on the other
describes the two
characteristics of the main
character.

3. A tag line is really vital
as it gives the viewers
the message about
the inside of the
movie.
The theme links to the
film, as its represented as
horror kind of genre. Also
the idea of two circles and
a shape of bat …makes
the viewers think if it’s a
human as the image
stands out as a sign of a
person figure.
The front image very creative, it
also represents the film itself.
However the creativity looks a bit
unprofessional and easy. The use
of colour is a pallet with a
mixture of cold to hot
colours, this emphasises the
viewers to be connect to the idea
of science fiction movies.
The name of the film
has being put bold and
stands out, with the use
of white colour.

4. Two film posters in different countries. Some of the industries tend to copy the exact same thing as
different magazine (copy right). This for me, I think it’s not an idea of being creative as there’s
nothing that could distinguish them. The following are two magazines but with the same idea of
being creative:
Same ideas on 2
different magazines.
But based on different
audiences of countries.
Featuring the two sides
of the character.
Mast head under and the names of the
cast on top, with the idea of bold and
different font used.
