The document discusses posters for four films and aspects the author likes about each poster's design. For the film "When the lights went out", the author likes how the title fades like lights, the sharp focal image of the woman's eyes, and how her hair fits the horror theme. For "Before I go to sleep", the author likes the catchy tagline in red, how the title stands out, and how Nicole Kidman is layered and the main image. For "The call", the author likes the map overlay showing the location, the red filter representing danger, and Halle Berry's emotionless powerful image. For "Adult world", the author likes the three montage shots, how the characters are framed

1. When the lights went out is a British
Independent films set in the 1970’s
blackout. I like the poster for a range of
things:
-The title fades, like when lights fade out,
matching with the title.
-The focal image is sharp, especially with
her eyes piercing through the poster,
making sure the audience remembers it.
-Her hair fits into the “Abuse” theme of
the film, it is matted and covered in blood,
this can also be linked into the horror
aspect, automatically assuming it has
something to do with possession.
-The poster is basic, but it has a powerful
image, therefore sells the film well.
Using a similar powerful image within my
poster to show the massive impact within
my film.

3. Before I go to sleep is a 2015 film featuring
Nicole Kidman. The film is a thriller that
focuses on a woman who can’t remember the
day before her because of an accident, and
she begins to question everything around her.
This poster offers a range of ideas for me to
use when creating my poster.
- The tagline is catchy, the red representing
danger in contrast to the rest of them.
- BEFORE & SLEEP stand out more than
others creating an eye catching piece,
appealing to the target reader
- The photos are layered together, and this is
also appealing.
- Nicole Kidmans character stands out,
making the audience think she is the main
character
Using a layered poster like this, shows Nicole
Kidman's importance by putting her in color
and she is the main image, having three
sections, rather than the male role who have
two.

4. The call is a 2013 thriller set in
America. The Map on Halle
Berry’s face represents the
map in movie. The follows a
999 call of a girl who has been
abducted.
This poster has the following
features that I enjoy:
- The map overlay shows the
location of the film
- The red filter, representing
danger stands out with the
titles
- Halle Berry’s face is very
emotionless, almost as if
she is shocked, therefore
making it a powerful image.
Using a powerful image like
this one, can help establish a
powerful storyline to the
audience, and the overlay
offers a unique approach to
the poster.

5. Adult world is a 2014 film, about a
young poet who accepts a job at a
sec shop, and pursues a mentorship
with a powerful poet.
I like the following because they
work effectively:
-The 3 montage shot
-The framing of the characters makes
the characters more likeable.
-The color scheme is unique and
stands out to the target audience.,
this makes it powerful.
If I took anything from this poster it
would be the powerful color scheme
and how uniquely it stands out to
the target audience.
