Individual research into Movie Posters



 
 
 
Many horror films have a dark background with white writing, like this poster from The Conjuring.


A movie poster is mostly set out with the main actor's names at the top of the poster, these are usually popular, well known actors that are credited. The movie title is always in large writing so that it stands out.
The producers and editors are normally written in small writing.







This film poster for The Conjuring has a dark acid wash background which looks grungy and old. This gives off the impression that it may be a scary film. At the top of the poster is says 'From the director of Saw and Insidious' this shows us that the director has done many other films which the audience may have previously seen or heard of. If you have seen the film Saw or Insidious you would know that they are gory, creepy films and that gives an indication that this film may follow the same themes. Underneath the title of the film it says 'Based on the true case films of The Warrens' meaning that it follows a true story, this may interest the audience as it means it is not completely fictional and may grab the audiences attention and convince them to watch it.
