Before i can begin to properly plan my own film poster I first need to do some research on what they include and how they captive an audience to sell there product to them.
Here are some of the conventions of film posters I was able to find :
- To be eye-catching /captivating.
- To have a focal picture that will be intriguing.
- To display a large title that is easily read.
- Suggests the genre of the film.
- Can use famous actors to promote the film.
- Usually aimed at a target audience to attract them.
- A tagline is often present in the poster.
- "Coming Soon" or a release date is usually displayed.
- Age certification is normally displayed.
- The directors and the production company are shown.
Here is a nice website where I found alot of this information it also included information about many other ways of advertising: http://www.slideshare.net/guest78c406/codes-and-conventions-of-promotional-film-material-2668179.
