The movie poster features three men who are the main characters standing in front of bright city lights, introducing them to the audience. One character is holding a baby wearing sunglasses, bringing humor and questions. The title "The Hangover" at the bottom hints at the plot of men waking up in strange circumstances after a night of drinking. Small text also promotes the experienced director. Overall the poster uses humor and odd details to attract a wide audience to the comedy genre film.
Ancillary research 2.1
The document provides an analysis of film poster conventions based on research of four horror movie posters. Key conventions discussed include:
- Using close-up images of characters that relate to the film's story or theme.
- Placing the film title prominently in a contrasting color to stand out.
- Including taglines or subtitles that provide additional context or intrigue audiences.
- Featuring the release date in red to draw attention.
The analyses of individual posters examines how they convey their horror genre and would appeal to the target teenage/young adult demographic through creative use of images and text following common conventions. The research informs the creation of the student's own teaser poster.
Task 12.pptx
This document discusses several promotional materials for an upcoming film, including key art, merchandise logos, cosplay guides, social media posts, director/actor headshots, and set photos. The key art and logos feature memorable imagery from the film to promote it, while maintaining a subtle design that can be shrunk down. A cosplay guide demonstrates how fans can recreate a character's outfit. Social media posts and headshots are meant to generate excitement and position the film and its creators positively. Set photos and equipment lists aim to signal high production value.
Ancillary research 2.1
The document provides an analysis of four horror movie posters. It examines the target audiences, content, and use of genre conventions in each poster. Key conventions included frightening central images, dark coloring, titles in bold colors, taglines hinting at the plot, and references to violence or the supernatural. The analysis found that all four posters effectively used conventions like these to attract audiences and clearly communicate the films' horror genres. The document concludes the poster analysis will help inform the design of the author's own horror movie poster project.
FMP: Pre-Production
The document provides details on the color scheme and fonts that will be used for a film. It describes choosing a mixture of bright and dark colors like green, blue, yellow, orange, and red to appeal to the target audience, as well as darker colors like purple and black to reference the darker elements of the plot. Several potential fonts are listed that could be used for the title, with descriptions of each font's style and why it may work well. The end summarizes plans to design the movie poster similarly to Scream, with the villain's face central and characters on top, below the title and release date.
Film poster analysis
The poster promotes a horror film by featuring a bloody image of a woman dragging her hand along a wall, implying a demonic presence. It includes the film's title in a sinister font and the tagline "Once you see him, nothing can save you", creating intrigue around the demon face drawn on the wall. The desaturated colors, emphasis on blood, and minimalist style amplify the horror elements to attract audiences to the gruesome yet mysterious film.
Film posters
The document discusses conventions used in movie posters for different genres. It provides examples of posters for short films, animated films, thrillers, and sci-fi films. Some common conventions discussed include: featuring main characters prominently, using color schemes and designs that reflect the genre, leaving some mystery or intrigue, and conforming to audience expectations for that genre. Short film posters often provide more insight into the plot to attract a smaller, niche audience.
Horror poster analysis
The document analyzes conventions commonly found in horror movie posters. It provides examples from the posters of the movies "You're Next" and "Sinister" to illustrate these conventions. Key conventions discussed include using a black, red, and white color scheme; featuring a large image of the main character(s); including the release date, credits, and a tagline. Both posters analyzed employ lighting, fonts, imagery, and other design elements to create a sense of fear, danger, and intrigue for the viewer.
Question 2 finished
The document discusses the effectiveness of the main film and its ancillary advertising products, a radio trailer and film poster. It was trying to portray a boy (Harry) liking a girl (Emily) but she likes his best friend (Callum) instead. Both the radio trailer and film poster reflect this complication. The film poster specifically shows Emily looking at Callum, not Harry, and Harry and Callum shaking hands. It uses bright colors and stars to attract attention and convey the film's genre. Comparisons are made to real film posters like Megamind and Definitely Maybe that also utilize central characters, bright colors, and complications to sell romantic comedy films.
Final Ideas
The document discusses ideas for advertising a crime thriller film through a trailer, magazine cover, and movie poster. For the trailer, key action scenes and locations are selected to attract crime thriller fans. The magazine cover features a close-up of the murderer's mask and uses dark colors. The movie poster displays images of the murderer and victim with the tagline "Your Fate Is In The Hands Of Time." Consistent colors, taglines, and actors are used across products to clearly link them to the same film.

- 1. The colours of the magazine that are chosen are very bright and vibrant wich will easily catch the eye of the consumer and make the attracted to the magazine cover and give them initial interest to read it. The chosen movie is also a spin off idea of the original Harry Potter movies which will attract that side of the audience/consumers that are interested in this type of film genre. The choice of fonts despite the “Entertainment” masthead is all eunique and fits the theme of the movie genre that is being showcased. The choice of image is also very intense and serious to make the movie and the covever have that more mysterious and unexpected outcome towards the audience. This will intrigue the consumers as they will see that the movie has a deeper meaning behind the main images on the cover and that there is a lot more to be revealed.
- 2. The choice of font for the masthead on this front cover easily and quite understandably links in with the whole theme and idea of this new superhero movie. The colours chosen however are not exactly 100% serious as they are bright and vibrant and arguably on the more feminine side. This clearly shows tha5t the movie being presented has a more comedic side to it and that it will not be in a serious manner the whole time. The main image of the magazine cover is also like the chosen colours as it is very unserious and has a comedic side to it. The strap lines also state that it is a “free comic on issue” which appeals to the audience that enjoy this genre of movie.
- 3. This next magazine cover is based of a movie that takes place in a fantasy world that has all sorts of creative and wacky ideas. This is easily linked to the theme and colours of the magazine as they are all very spread and off the scale with how vibrant and outburst they are. The choice of main image features a main character from the film that is known to be very creatively dressed and quite crazy. This is clearly shown by the colours that he is wearing and all the makeup and crazy hair styles. This also shows off the main theme of the movie and the style of it as it does not take a full 100% serious manner. The straplines on the side also show off the main star which is Johnny Depp. This will pull in a wider audience as they will see that a top star is leading the movie and they will know it will be very professional in some sense
- 4. On this main cover of the new Aladdin movie magazine the first thing that catches my eye is the colour scheme as all the characters are well dressed in very exotic and unique colours that complement the fresh background that shines right through you. You can also tell that the movie is very child friendly and very happy as the characters are presented to smile and look very happy in contrast to n action movie that might have characters looking a bit more rough and beaten up. You can also tell by the style of modern font that it is a very vibrant and happy film that appeals more to children as it pops right out of the cover and has a fun vibe to it. You can also see that the cover is very welcoming to the audience as the characters arms are wide open and he is looking very happy and supportive rather than creepy. This will make the audience understand that it is a very child friendly and enjoyable movie.
- 5. In this magazine you can instantly see that the movie being presented has a very serious vibe as all the characters being shown are dressed in sharp black suits and they all also have very serious looks. This comes across as very intimidating and quite stone cold and serious. This will make the audience understand that the movie does not take up a comedic factor and that it will be very tense. The choice of colours are also very serious and remind me of death and blood as the two main chosen colours are black and red. This will also show the audience that their will be a serious of drama and possibly even death as you can see from the colours that everything is dimmed out and made to look gloomy. The choice of scenery also looms very haunted with the furniture and candles that give the whole scene a very dark vibe. The style of font chosen is also vey unique which links in with the whole mysterious and unknown vibe that is created by the whole design and layout of the magazine. The fact that there is also vey little writing on this magazine also makes the audience focus on the deep stare that the characters are giving to look very creepy and intimidating
