3 DRAFT POSTER ANALYSIS

The ideas i wanted to achieve in designing my three draft posters is to use a pinnacle and iconic images from the film which i could use in my posters, i think this would appeal more to the audience as it will give them an inside to what happens it certain parts of the film. the middle poster the teaser poster i just wanted to keep simple so i decided to add the main elements to what are in the film. in the last poster i used the initials of the film, i think this would also make a good logo for the film. i wanted to use dark colors in the poster to represent the film being a dark thriller. i have used a lot of red in the posters to show the film will contain violence. In the first poster i wanted to make the 'guns' in a big, bold and metallic font, i think this gives the poster a more of an urban feeling and showing the audience where the film will be set.

AdULTHOOD Film Poster

The Adulthood poster mainly consists of the main group of characters which are based on the film. The main group of characters looking as though they are on top of a building looking at the camera, the look of the characters faces and their posture may make the audience scared and threatened, also making look like they are dominating everything else.

The main design of the film poster is the use of dark colors to give the audience a dark imagining to the film. Also the poster shows a landscape background of London which tells the location of the films setting. There is also a weapon lying on the floor, this tells that there will be violence in the film.

The main colors for the people in the poster are dark, the background color of the buildings are dark, this could tell us that the locations are not very pleasant.

The title 'AdULTHOOD' gives me an image of this film being a next chapter from 'Kidulthood' as as the film progresses from the group of characters changing from teenagers into adults. Also what i also think about the title is that what happens in the film is just a phase that the characters go through that will pass.

DISTRICT 13: ULTIMATUM Film Poster

In this movie poster, the people starring in the movie are jumping through mid air in front of a massive explosion, this image shows us that there is going to be lots of action in the film. The way they are represented in the poster is by a lot of action and parkour.

The design of the poster shows a backdrop of paris and in the foreground a big explosion from a building with the stars jumping from from one building to the other, this could be a pinnacle shot from the film so it creates a more of a dramatic effect for the audience.

The main color in the poster is the blue skyline, which takes up a good part of the poster. Then getting darker till it is black at the bottom.

The title's lay out is in a kind of shortened and abbreviated, it almost looks as though it could be a name for a gang, which also could give us a insight to what the film is about. Also the title takes up a large portion of the bottom part of the poster, the reason why i think they have made the title the biggest part of the poster is to make the audience see that first and it is very clear and easy to read. i think the title and font reflects on the type of film as it has a kind of concrete and urban background.

Snatch Film Poster

The snatch film poster has a very simple structure only consisting of the main characters who are in the film, and the title and the production credits. The stars are presented as eightys gangsters, the way this is presented is by their appearance. Brad Pitt is the leading man as he is the well known actor and he is the biggest in terms of film, then it is almost as though the audiences eyeline takes them to the next biggest actor who is vinnie jones, then leads on to the back where the characters Tommy and Turkish remain.

The background colour of the poster is white and plain. The reason i think why there is a plain background is to emphasise the characters which have a kind of red color, this could represent blood and give the audience an image of the film being violent.

The title 'Snatch' gives the audience the impression that the film sounds like a game as the diamond keeps getting taken and snatched from different gangs as they want it. The title is also cer easy and clear to read which may also attract more of an audience.

STORYBOARD ANALYSIS

In the storyboard, the scene starts with the gang leader that has stolen the diamond on the phone planning to meet up the other gang member where he is trying to get his diamond back. The two gangs meet up in a car park and fight it out to get the diamond back.

Meanwhile an undercover cop has been told that there is a stolen diamond and he has to go to the car park where the gangsters are fighting to retrieve it. He free runs from his location to the car park which includes parkour. By this time the gang leader who had stolen the diamond had managed to knock out the other ring leader, this is when the undercover cop comes in to the scene and then there is a chase scene with the cop and and the ring leader with the diamond. There is a fight between the cop and the ring leader to get the diamond, the undercover police man gets the diamond and then runs out of shot.

Then the last shot is of the two gangs lying dead on the floor.

ACTION-THRILLER END SEQUENCE MOOD BOARD

what ideas i think have changed looking at my mood board would be the overall look of the gangsters. before the group and i decided on the gangsters dressed in a shirt and trousers but i think we should enhance it further to make the gangsters look more of a stereotypical gangster look. also what else we decided on is to film the sequence in daylight in a public area.
