Research: Poster Analysis

In my initial research, I analysed 2 film poster to understand the different aspects of film posters and what makes a film poster unique.




Film Poster Taglines

The tagline for my film poster and trailer;
'When the cards are on the table, he can run no more.
This fits my film because it shows an insight into the film's plot.

A film tagline is the film's advertising slogan, which is found on film posters and in trailers. It gives a quick and captivating insight into the film's themes, plot and genre. I looked at various taglines for Horror/ Thriller films to understand what type of tagline I should create in order to fit these genres.

  4. A reflective and articulate post which analyses the development of your poster from creation to consumption. As usual, the careful documentation of your work affords useful insight into the various elements, how you used your initial inspirations and how you integrated visual codes from your film to make the poster unique and powerful. You use the cracked glass concept to create the visual framework that positions the characters in relation to each other whilst also conveying a sense of threat and menace through the splinters of bloodied playing card and fractured glass shards. The black backdrop, the blood spatters, the shaky font and the young victim all give the poster an appealing ‘indie film’ quality. You have effectively engaged your target audience with a convincing film poster that fits in with the promo pack as a whole.
