Short film posters

As you can see this poster of  'George Lucas In Love' it is set out as a animation, this will attract younger audiences. The genre of this film is romance, however Denis McQuail refers to the commercial and industrial significance of genres where producer target audiences and capitalize on the success of previous film. In poster you can see more than one character which this shows the main character of the short film. Which this allows you to give you more detail about the film. On the bottom of the poster it has the starting of the characters so the viewers will know who's in the film. The poster is in brown  which this may show to the viewers that its in the time of the Victorians. The font colour is in white which this stands out, however its in standard font, which they may not create much of excitement to some audience. E.g. if you look at the mainstream films title they are more stylish which stand out with the picture and they layout of the poster. The poster is covered up with pictures and title and has no free space which gives out plenty of information to the audience.




The poster of 'I am Here' shows two Robert couple sitting together this can tell you the genre of the film which is Romance. Christine Gledhill says in relation to the mass media, genre is part of the process of targeting different market sector. At the bottom of the poster the picture gets out of focus which this stand out the starting of the character in white font. The title of the film is in the middle poster and is in large font which can grab audiences  eyes. The poster has different contrast, the upper part is bright with sky and at the bottom is out of focus how ever the title still stands out in the middle. It also has a slogan underneath the title 'A Love story is an absolute world' this also indicates you to show the genre of the film which is Romance. It enough writing on because the title of the film covers most of the space of the poster.








The genre of the film looks more like Thriller because of the picture of the character with the gun. It can also involve crime in the film. The pictures of the character in the poster are divided. This show the main character of the film. The name of the title also matches the picture with the person with a gun because its in the hall. However the poster more looks like mainstream poster because of the lay out of the pictures and the starting names of the character which is at the top. It also has less writing on because the  picture of the character shows and tells you what the story may be about.










How ever if you look at the other poster of 'Across the hall' this doesn't show much of an mainstream film poster because its not professional as the first one. The layout is also different, the picture is taken from one of the scene. The picture shows a scared and not trustful relation between the character because of his impression he has made ans shows that his hiding from the person who is walking towards him. This poster has a billing block at the bottom of the poster, which shows the credits of the film. However the one above this poster hasn't got one.
