2. The title of the film
conforms to the magical
theme that is also shown in
the trailer.The title also
matches the main image
seen because the main
character is shown holing a
cup cake with a birthday
candle in. Birthday candles
are linked to wishes.
The balloons and the cake
together are there to give
the audience small pieces of
information to what the
narrative of the film is
about.These clues give the
idea that it is based around a
birthday.
The posters colour theme pink
and purple emphasise the
‘girly’ aspect of the film and
targets the young teen age girl
audience the film is looking to
attract.
The main image on the poster is on
he main character (female) and
behind her is a male character.This
shows that they are both an
important part of the narrative but
tells the audience that the female is
the main focus.
The tagline of the film is at the bottom
of the poster and gives the audience
the idea that not everything is as it
seems.This makes the audience want
to find out why is Abby’s birthday
different to other sweet 16.
