Posters of different genre
Lauren Fitzsimons
Names at the top of the
poster is a common
convention this advertises
the actors in the film.
I like the background as its
not something I have seen so
far it does however make the
poster very busy. I like how
they have matched this with
her costume so everything
on the poster is bright and
appealing. The use of colour
is usually seen in comedy’s.
The font of the title is in a
sketched effect I think this is
to represent the immaturity
of her being a teenager. I
don’t think the sizing is big
enough for the overall
poster and I think it should
be placed at the top of the
page instead of to the right.

It is also a convention
that they will add a
quote from a critic on
the poster to advertise
how good the critics
think it is. These are
usually from famous
companies.

The tag line is more of a
description of the film ‘a
film about growing up and
the bumps along the way’
this is a very creative way
that they have made
reference to the bump she
has got.
I do like however how
the image is placed the
side on the rule of thirds
because this is
unconventional for any
genre to do this.
For the tag line to be
placed at top of the page is
non conventional because
this is normally placed at
the side of the image or at
the bottom to give more
context to the image. This
image however doesn’t
need any context as we
already know what film it is
and what character they
are portraying as the
Joker’s make up is drawn
on the wall.

The title of the film is
placed at the bottom I
don’t think this is a
problem however this is
hard to see as the sizing is
very small. I also think it
should be a lot bigger than
the tag line whereas its not
far off the same size.

The image is very
interesting because instead
of taking the picture of the
Joker they have used
symbolism instead this is a
creative way to portray this
character. I don’t think this
would work with a normal
film poster however
because the Batman is well
known and is a classic.
I like the idea that the
image covers the whole
poster as a background
instead of using the
symbols on a black
background for example.
Even the bat is
recognisable without
actually looking at the
film title.
The use of the
background being
white I don’t think
works because I would
prefer if it was black so
that her make up and
crown would stand
out.

The font that the text
has been added in is
very simple and still
doesn’t give us any
indication to what the
film genre is. It does
however hint that
maybe she does fit in
and is out casted. I also
don’t think the title is
big enough for the
poster it should be the
first thing that you see.

Just by looking at the
image we are very
directed to look at the
make up and the styling
of this picture. It is very
confusing by just looking
at the poster what the
genre is and this isn’t
good because this should
be the first thing that you
work out. The prop of the
tiria make sus think it is a
girly film.
This poster has the
creators and producers
on the side in brackets I
don’t like the idea of this
I think these should be
placed at the bottom out
of the way.
The colour scheme is blue
and has a blue tint to the
image this signals that this
film is a male or action
film.
The proxemics of this
image is interesting too
because both him and the
lady are placed on the rule
of thirds compositionally
this looks good. She also
adds context to the film
this hints he is a ladies
man by the way she is
looking at him.
His costume and the prop
of the gun gives us more
details to the genre he is
very well dressed and his
gun shows this will be
action involved.

I like how this image is
the background to the
whole poster this
makes a impact as there
is a lot of look at . The
background is also a
different colour to him
and it makes him stand
out without having to
blur anything else out.
The title font is simple
but no less than
effective it is in skinny
linear font. The ‘o’ of
the title are joined and
they are bold this is to
make another word out
of the title as the gun
placed underneath is
the 7 making the word
007. I do think this title
should be bigger as it is
placed a little too small.
The tag line is very
cliché of fairy-tale’s I
think this is good as it is
a children’s film and
based on folktales. The
font of the tag line is
like one in a traditional
storybook for example
the font type that ‘once
upon a time’ would be
written in.

The image is also
placed on the side I find
it distracting that the
left side has more
background than the
right they should be
central.

The colour design of this
photo shows that its
genre is children as many
of the colours are
primary with the blue,
red and yellow . This is a
commonly saw
convention when looking
at children’s film posters.
These colours are deep
and this portrays the fact
that this is a darker fairytale.
The font text of the film
title is like that of the
tag lien it is traditional
fairy-tale text with tails
on the letters to make
it fancy. I think the
outline colour od the
black makes it look 3D
and I think this works.
I don’t really like how
there isn’t a colour
scheme they could
have matched her
lipstick to the colour of
the title.

I think that the title looks
as if it is stamped onto
her head this doesn’t
work and I think it should
have been placed at the
bottom with the sizing
bigger.
I think in terms of the
image alone I would
have cropped off the
neck and chin so that
only her face was left
this would then make
the glasses more
central to the pictures
composition.

The image is very
confusing to the films
genre because her glasses
show piranhas however
she herself looks like a
fashion image. The image
in her glasses is cracked
and I like the fact we can
see what she is seeing in
her glasses.

The tag line is placed at
the top and I don’t like
this either as it is not big
enough and the colour is
making it blend into the
rest of the picture. I do
however like the fact that
they have used a list of
three with repetition this
makes it quick pace and
snappy when reading it.
The background to this
image gives us context on
the story because it is
shown that it will take
place at a prom. We are
told this in the banner
placed at the back this use
of props I think is good.

The colour design to the
background image is
blue I don’t think the
title of the red goes
with this.

This by the use of the
images props is a action
film as they are both
carrying guns. This isn’t
clear at first glance how
a action film can be
based at a prom but that
makes people wanting to
watch the film.

This film title font is the
American sport text with
the rounded corners taken
off. This again tells us it has
references to the school
and maybe even the sports
teams. I don’t like how the
actors names are placed on
top of the title these
should be either at the top
or bottom.
