Film posters

These are the three posters that my group created. The photos we used were photos that Issy and Jimmy took when they were filming on Southend pier as we thought that the setting was a beautiful place because of the sunset and that it was in an interesting place to have as a background on the film posters.

This is a poster for a bus of a London underground poster that Issy created. She added the star rating to make it look more professional.

This is a landscape film poster that would be placed on walls, and poster signs at bus stops and in cinemas.

This is a landscape poster that would be placed on bill boards and poster signs.

Issy edited the bus/London underground poster on to an image of the London underground. This is an example of where this poster would be placed.

The reason why each poster is different is because we didn't want each poster to be the same and films commonly have posters that are edited dramatically from its original image so we wanted ours to look more realistic. Also, the bus/underground poster is different as when we looked at bus posters they tended to have different things on them than the other posters. Me and my group took inspiration from these film posters:

 The majority of the inspiration for the film posters came from this My Sisters Keepers film poster. The inspiration we got from this film poster was the place where the title of the film is, the place where the important actor/actresses names are, the place where the institutions are and the fact that it has the release date of the film on the poster. Also, we got the inspiration for putting the text on the top of the poster stating that the director has directed a previous good film came from this poster. We put this on the film posters to make the film posters look more realistic and professional.



We decided to place the star rating on the bus/underground poster as we looked at posters such as the one above and found that they are on the majority of the posters to make the film look good. We placed the star rating on the poster to make it look realist and so that we didn't end up with a plank space on the poster as we tried to place the release date in the gap but the size of the font didn't look right.
