The reader is immediately
introduced to who the characters are
played by (the cast). This allows the
reader to possibly recognize popular
actors such as ‘’Ryan Gosling as
Young Noah Calhoun’’ which they
may admire therefore they are more
likely to go and watch the film
themselves.
Film posters have been used since the earliest exhibitions of films and in this case the
movie poster of ‘’The Notebook’ is featuring the main characters of the film along with
the year that it was released. The text of film posters usually contains the film title and
possibly the director of the film however in this case I believe that the director of the
movie has not been introduced therefore it does distract the audience from the
passion, romance expressed in the photograph itself.
• Star Ratings.
• The review
• The date it was published.
The Title can be related to
the first impression of the
film as well as summarizing
the plot of the film. It is
important that the title is
addressed within the movie
review as Intertextuality
(the relationship between
texts, especially literary
ones.) is linked throughout
the posters, movie scenes,
reviews and movie titles
mainly focusing on the
main characters of the film.
The color scheme is neutral offering
the viewer a calming mood with the
website’s professional and classic
outcome overall.
Twitter is another way of gaining access to
the target in order to promote the movie. For
example if the actor Ryan Gosling uses twitter
to tweet information related to the movie
itself, he is being followed by fans all around
the world therefore increasing the popularity
and amount of film viewers. The trailer
of the movie also acts as an important factor
linked to this. ( Why?! Addressed in he
following slide)
The target audience is most likely to be of the
female gender from young teenagers to possibly
even elderly woman. The poster itself and the
shot of a movie scene has a very strong
emotional sense of love and intimacy which will
evoke an emotional response in woman
particularly triggering excitement therefore they
are more likely to watch the film.
Considering the male
gender as a target
audience, I believe they
are immediately
alienated just by
looking at this website
and the romance and
passion addressed
within it. The poster as
an example, makes it a
feminine looking movie
as men are
stereotypically
associated with action,
comedy, horror and
thriller genre of movies.

8. In search for inspiration, I have
stumbled upon an online site called
http://iloveshortfilms.com. The
website enables it’s audience not to
only watch short movies for free,
however to also submit their own.
iLoveShortFilms.com are a small
group of script writers who have been
bought together in order to provide
feedback and tips on shot film
submitters on how to improve and
become exceptional filmmakers
themselves. I believe that once we
have produced our own short film,
we could possibly submit to this
particular site in order to gain
audience feedback that are capable
to access al over the world to this
website and provide an honest
opinion as their view will not be
affected with factors such as
friendship .

9. Here are the online Ratings of the short film I will be reviewing based on:
• The Story Line. (the plot of a novel ,play , film or the other narrative form.)
• Cinematography. (the art of photography and camerawork in film-
making.)
• Originality. ( the ability to think independently and creatively.)
• Engaging Factor. ( occupy or attract (someone's interest or attention).
• Directors rating. (a person who supervises the actors and other staff in a
film, play, or similar production.)
