When choosing a film
poster to analyse I decided to choose a poster not of a film similar to our own
but one that's design I find interesting and I feel that I can create a poster
for "Lily" similar to this one. Within this poster there are certain
features that I think would look good in a poster for "Lily".
One of these features is the naming of the film itself. The
films name is simply placed at the bottom of the poster alone. Within the
naming is a direct link to the main storyline of the film. This link is the 2
different portal colours used in the film which have been used instead of the
O.
I feel that we could
use this in a poster for "Lily" by having either a lily replace the Y
or even the knife from our film replace the I
A second feature of the poster is the colouring. the whole
poster only uses 5 different colours. The main colour used is black. Black is
usually linked with death or danger. A second colour used in the poster is
white which is usually related to innocence.
A third feature of the poster is the main character
presented in black and white. This allows the full effect of the black and
white be shown as with the character in black and white a large range of
colours are eliminated.
But these features that make the poster effective can also
act against it. This can be seen as the poster only uses a small range of
colours mainly consisting of black white and gray. This means that there are no
bright colours to catch you eye and draw you in. With the posters limited colour
range the audience is less likely to be interested in the poster when compared
to another bright poster.
