DESCRIPTION

Analysis of film posters

TRANSCRIPT

The actors are USP The main actor is not facing the camera which is telling us there might be a mystery about him The slogan is telling us that the film is based on a true story The simple writing contrasts to the dark sad theme to the poster The plain background makes the main actor and the American flag stand The American flag and the solider suggest to us that it follows the story of a typical American solider

Plain white background makes the main characters stand out The slogan tells us that they are a year older Social media Holding guns up showing its an action film The actors are USPs they are mainly in comedies They are looking very serious which contrast with the film being a comedy The two main characters are in the poster

The main actors sidekicks are next to him It mimics an action poster clich this is shown by the use of explosions and fire and the super hero There is a alterative marketing for the poster, it promotes lego toy its self The main character is wearing a orange suit this is always associated with labouring jobs The contrast of the bright blue sky down to the orange explosion to the black floor makes the main character stand out The bright colours indicate that its a fun and full of life film The characters are running away from an explosion this could tell us thats the thing they are trying to prevent The realise date The Main character is running away from something. Looks scared The tag line tells us the main character is a normal everyday person Kids like lego so they are going to watch the film
