The purpose of a film poster is to show the target audience what the films is modelled on, who the film is made by and what is the film actually about which is the main foundation that posters are based on, to show the audience a demonstration on what the film will be. A film poster is used to promote the film in a subtle way that does not reveal too much about the plot of the film. They are used to create a hook for the audience to have a desire to see the film. The poster I am analysing is the 2017 Beauty and the Beast poster. Posters are split into thirds, usually on teaser posters; this rule isn’t followed as there is only minimal information included, such as a title and release date and sometimes the cast or director names.

The living room, bedroom and possibly the garden will be used for the ope...
The purpose of film posters is to grasp the attention of audiences long before the film is released. There are specific elements of a poster that help to directly grasp the attention of the audience, such as main image, the star vehicles and the company/brand that is producing the film. In this case it is Marvel. In order for the posters to promote the film, they need to be placed in areas with public awareness such as on buses, at transport stations and in cinemas themselves.
