In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
One of the ancillary tasks was to create a poster for my film. Before I started creating my poster I looked at various existing posters from different genres and analysed them to get an understanding of what conventions are common in film posters.
As I expected there were a number of the same conventions found in various posters. Here below is a link to a list of Poster conventions:
Once I decided I wanted to make a Noir film, I looked at posters that belong to the Noir genre, to see if specific genres had convention, so that when it came to creating my own poster I was able to include these conventions making it as authentic as possible. I analysed them in terms of the font, colour, layout and more.
