I decided to analyse a film poster so I could get some ideas for when I tried to design my own.
The key element that stood out for me in this poster is the central position of the character. The focus is on him. Because of the central position, it allows for flexibility in editing, as the editor for this poster has edited in a city in his mid body, suggesting that he runs this city perhaps. The colour scheme of black white and a bit of red works really well and the poster as a whole is memorable.
A key feature of this poster is the text. The font of the text is done so that only two features really stand out: The name of the movie, and the release date. This is done so the audiences attention is not taken away from the three main characters, who by themselves offer massive selling value in the fact they are such recognisable movie stars: Matt Damon, Leonardo Decaprio and Jack Nicholson. A definite piece of information to take away from this poster when thinking about making my own is to not use over the top fonts; The poster needs to be slick, not in your face or overexcited. This will be achieved provided I use the correct fonts to make sure only important information is really noticeable, and the rest isn't too over the top.
