Helpful hints for your film review and poster

The internet has a wealth of examples so use it - type in film poster [or review] analysis - and then click on images to see a range of examples - some good some basic! Remember not all are A level standard!


Here are screen shots of some of those I found:

There are also some slideshare presentations like these:

Remember you have to analyse existing examples yourself and then use the same conventions for a similar vehicle [ie magazine or billboard / bus stop etc]

Also remember that for both, you need to show your research and the final product along with a quick evaluation [remember one of the evaluation questions is the continuity between the ancillary products and the film itself.]

For the film review you need to discuss the magazine your review is going into. Maybe house style, use of language or register, purpose or intent of the review within the magazine, bear in mind the target audience of the magazine.

For the poster you need to consider where exactly will your poster be seen, by whom and what you need to think about regarding what you can show.
