2. Theme: Movie Poster
Funny face
Firstly throughout the three main products they all have connoting
a comedy genre aspect to it and the comedy theme is the theme
apparent, through the font used, image used etc. of comedy
in the
movie
In the movie poster we used an image of him with a poster
weird and funny face looking out of a window this would
relate to the comedy theme, he looks amazed and
shocked and the face he puts on is unusual which is
why it would connote comedy. It seems as though he
has just found the Olympics and the face he pulls out
with is over exaggerated like he does in the others for
this reason there is a comedy theme to this. The font
used for the title of the film „Monty' in the movie poster is
cartoony and is informally written which connotes the
Love theme shown on
genre of the film. This font is mostly used on the movie The font used is

3. Theme: review Review main image
Similarly the image and the font used in the
review also show the comedy theme. For the
review we used a still image of him looking at
the security guards. The facial expression on his
face look confused and he looks innocent
because he didn‟t expect to see the security
guards there. And his facial expression relate
back to his weird and physical humour and this
also connotes the comedy theme. It seems like
he is looking at the audience and is pulling them
into the film.
The font used in the movie review doesn't have
a comedy theme this is because we wanted to
keep the review professional however we still
promote the film by the use of quotes for
example “comedy at its finest”. These quotes
This is the main image on the review. The facial
follow a comedy theme. expression on Monty's face will show the theme
of comedy on the review. The facial expression
looks hilarious because he is over exaggerating
the confusion look which he is trying to do. It also
seems like he is staring straight at the audience
and building a fake relationship.
4. Theme: Short Film
Slapped by the girl
Lastly there is also a comedy theme on the short
film by the expressions and behaviour of Monty
the main character and also through other various
scenes like when he gets slapped on the train or
when he dances in the day dream. There is also a
theme of love in our short film when he falls in love
with the girl whom he meets on the train. And we
show this love theme on the movie poster as well
by having a day dream bubble coming out of the
main images head with a hot pink background
connoting love and lust.
Dancing in the day dream
5. House Style
Secondly the house style is also the same throughout our three main products because the font and
colour schemes that we used are similar in all three products. For example in our movie poster the
colour scheme is orange black and yellow with a bit of white. We used this house style as it connoted
a bubbly and comedy vibe so we decided to use this throughout all of our products. we also used this
font in our short film, when the title of the film is introduced during the first few seconds of the film, we
used the same font and a picked a minimum amount of colours from the colour scheme. so there is a
similar combination of the same style of text and its layout being played there. however in our review
we wanted to make it different and more classy. we wanted to make the film look professional and for
this reason we tried using a more formal font in the review rather then the cartooned font which we did
in the movie poster and short film.
The same colour scheme is
being used in both the
movie poster and the
beginning of our film.

6. Content & Imagery
the content of the three main products is also similar,
they all consist of the main character being the main
image. In the film it is mostly about him and about
the weird things he does. We thought he should be
the main attraction so this is why we kept him the
main image in the review and poster.
The imagery used is also the same in all three
products because we wanted to use images in our
products that would be funny and give a short insight
on what the film is about, and that after they look at
the two print products they'll know it's something
comedy based so for this reason we chose images
that we thought were most funny in our film.
in our movie poster we chose a image of him looking
out the window and in our review we chose a image
of him looking confused and starring at the security
guards. this is the correspondence between both
images. They both consist of the main character
making a fool out of himself, thus making it more
obvious that our genre is comedy.
7. Promotional artefacts
The movie poster promotes the video product because firstly the colour scheme is
really bright and would catch the reader‟s attention. The main image used is funny
looking and unusual so the audience would want to know what the story is about. The
poster is also laid out professionally and looks neat and tidy so this makes the film look
classier.
our review acts as a promotional artefact because it grabs the reader‟s attention mainly
through the main still image used this image is weird looking and the audience would
want know what the film is all about.
In relation to how we would promote this film further is by creating a movie trailer for the
film so that we can grab the audience towards the film. We would also like to open up
Monty toys and also clothes wear like T- shirts etc so that this could promote our main
character and the film. We could open up a Monty cartoon series the way Mr Bean has
so that this still promotes the actual film and by watching the cartoon unknown viewers
would want to know what the real Monty is about so they'd want to watch the real film
and this could help promote the film.
