Evaluating my production work








1) What typical features (conventions) of a film poster have you used? How do they help to make the poster effective in attracting an audience? (Key conventions include title, release date, institutional information, reviews, a central image etc.)


In my film poster I have used the title,  'Anonymous', I have also used an institutional logo (NEW LINE CINEMA), cast names, age rating (18), tagline ( Always look behind you), release date (AUGUST 8th), credits and main image.

The title helps to attract my target audience because it creates a sense mystery as it is called 'Anonymous'. The colour of my title is red which connotes blood and death this helps the audience establish the genre of the movie which is horror.

2) What is the genre of your film? How would your target audience know this from design of your poster? E.g. Colour scheme, font choice, mise-en-scene (props, costume, character, setting).

The genre for my movie is horror

3) What institutional information have you used to try and sell the film and how does this appeal to the audience? E.g. 'From the Producers of...' / Star power / Directors / Reviews.


It appeals to the audience that my film poster has directors  4) Where are there examples of synergy between your storyboard and trailer? (Synergy is the link or interaction between two different media texts).




5) What representations have you used in your film? E.g. gender / race / age / nationality / place)? Are these reinforcing or challenging stereotypes? This is a good BBC Bitesize page on the key concept of Representation that will help with this question.
