Ancillary task - Film Poster.

Posters are mainly used when it comes to advertisement, they are made in mass order and are usually up to a large scale, this is mainly to be able to display them on walls,buses and outside cinemas to get the message across. Most posters I have researched have including graphical and textual elements to get the right message across, however a minority of film posters have just graphical or textual elements that doesn't give away too much of the films plot. Posters are designed to be informative and eye catching, this is a main element for advertising.

• Imagery of the main characters.
• The title of the film in big bold writing, in the central poster.
• The main actors names.
• A catchy slogan.
• A release date.
• The company.
• The director.
