Poster Analysis 2 - Beauty and the Beast

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. On the classic poster however, they are usually put in these thirds with the top third being the cast names, director names or a tagline, the middle third is known for having a picture   and the bottom third would have the title and other credits or...

The living room, bedroom and possibly the garden will be used for the ope...

Evaluation

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? In comparison to the other media products I had looked at; websites, trailers and posters, my media product manages to both conform and subvert the conventions used within each media product one convention which I had decided to use and develop was the use of motifs and themes among each product which was able to link and integrate them. For my product, I had decided to use Ouija boards and glitches throughout my poster, website and film trailer. On my poster, the image was distorted and manipulated in order to make it look like it was experiencing a glitch, which links to the cyber bullying aspect, relating to the antagonist’s death. This effect was achieved by following a tutorial I had found where different layers were inverted, had different hues and saturation, and different effects were used on each layer to give them a grainy and speckled look. In addition to the gli...
