Analysis Of Film Posters

Another task i did was an analysis of film posters. I looked at 9 different examples and stated the genre and target audience i thought it was for and what were the key signifiers that made me think so. Some examples of the posters i analysed are:

The Others

Genre: horror
Target Audience: young adults
What Were The Key Signifiers?: the font, the "O" (with devil horns), dark lighting & facial expressions.
In Time
Genre: action and romance
Target Audience: young adults/adults (both sexes)
What Were The Key Signifiers?: intimacy, the gun, the time on his arm, destroyed city in the background.
Fair Game
Genre: political and action
Target Audience: adults
What Were The Key Signifiers?: costume, background (the soldier and the tank), the shape of the font (round like a stamp).
