Question 3: Ancillary Task

  

In our poster, we just show the main characters behind a completely black background. We looked at posters of the drama genre and found they usually focus on the characters. This poster for The Soloist for example focuses a lot on the characters, and the fact that someone's looking to the side show they are the ones with the main issues and they are usually the main character. However we decided to have less emphasis on the actors names and more emphasis on the films title, which appears at the end of our film.












 

We looked at real life reviews, especially for drama films like Kidulthood. We noticed that the layout was in columns and there was usually small important information about the film such as the film's stars and its release date. There are also many images from the film which shows what the film being reviewed looks like. We used this image because it shows most of the characters and this shot summarises the friendship between them all. For the review, we used the distinctive colour scheme of blues so that it is more interesting to look at. We also used a star rating which is a key way of showing at a glance how good the film is. We decided to use one column as we felt it looked neater and was easier to read.
