Ancillary Task Ideas

For our film poster we are think about having a quite dark feel to it. It will include colours such as black, grey and any other dark colours that would fit in. We are thinking of having a car in the background of the shot with maybe 4 actors standing in front of it. This will enable the audience to see who is starring in the film and it will give them a rough idea of what it is about. They will be able to tell by the clothes that the actors are wearing and the car will also show that it includes some action within it.

We have yet to decide what will be on the front of our Empire magazine cover. It will most likely be the same sort of thing with some actors being involved and a car will most definitely be used. With the car and the rough look of the actors it will so the audience that the film is of a hybrid genre.

Some examples of Front covers and Film posters are below:

Some ideas we are thinking of taking from this poster are having the car as the main focus and the actors in the background. I like this because is obvious what genre it is.

From this poster we can see all the main actors starring within the film, we are thinking of doing the same of ours as it allows the audience to see who is in it.

I like the big bold writing in this poster. They have made the title the main focus within this poster, we want to emulate this with our so that it stands out to the audience.

This poster is good because its clearly what genre it is by having racing cars on the front. It also has to female characters on show which will attract the male audience, this is commonly known as the male gaze. This the things we want to take out from this poster are the colours used. We want to use dark colours to back up our genre.
