2. - Independent
production
companies above
title.
- Actors names
below title
(not very well
known)
Conventional for
independent. But in
the middle of the
whole poster.
- Mostly black and
white with pops
or red and
orange.
- Hints that there is
colour in the
mundane lives of
the characters i.e.
woman on chair
in colour implies
there’s more to
see if you look
beyond the black
- Uncalenadr whhanitdew. ritten
font (reflects
identity theme of
finding oneself
and makes it
more personal),
some letters
lower case and
some capital
shows informal
and relatable film
style.
- Woman depicting
a conventional
image of loneliness
but her face is
hidden (could be
anyone – opens to
the audience)
3. - Opens with prod. Company logo.
- Banjo/guitar strumming western
country soundtrack creates comedic
effect as it cuts to the woman with a
run down car seemingly in the
middle of nowhere.
- Audience left to
guess who, where,
what and why with
first establishing
shot.
- Independent comedy drama genre
established from first shot.
4. - Cuts between shots like
these. Photo (left) and
short take of the arrival of
a woman (bottom)
- Similar in framing, the
colours and general
image/setting are the same.
(Naturally lit wide shots)
- Fragmented but carry the
same theme and story.
- Balloons show the childlike
nature of friends and
growing up/coming of
age. (Nostalgia)
- Woman arriving blends into
colours of frame and
appears swallowed by
surroundings. Lower
down centre frame
makes her looks
new/finding
herself/vulnerability.
5. - Contrasting short take and
snap shot/photo edited
together again but very
different.
- Intimate/friendly feelings
stirred, pinks/whites/soft
lighting. Women look
similar. (Centre frame in
wide shot)
- (Below) Women look
separated, bleak
colours, age
difference
representing
different times but
same themes
- Similar image again both
wide shots.
6. - Edited in a way
that mimics
remembering a
memory and
contrasts in
loneliness and
friendship again.
- Careful framing
that makes the
overall trailer flow
cohesively.
- Difference in
soft/low key and
harsh but natural
lighting throughout
the trailer.
7. - Difference in
lighting again
showing a difference
in time period or
different
relationships.
- Naturalistic
way of
marginalising
different
relationships.
8. - Mix between
handwritten/ink and
capital block letters.
- Actors underlined keeping
handwritten personal feel
to the trailer. (Letter to
the audience)
- Ending with release info. (Too
vague for our film however)
