Organisation: Conventions of the Poster

It is important that my poster includes all the necessary conventions of a typical poster so that it seems professional and actually looks like a movie poster.
As you can see from this photo i have added in the film credits which details all of the people involved in the movie. Although a small touch it something that really pulls the whole poster together making it look like a professional poster. As well as this i also added in the release date, the URL and the logo of the company that distributed it "studio canal". These are all the small touches that really pull the poster together to give it that 'poster' look.





Here you can see i have added in the title of the film 'Beneath the shadows'. This is so that the audience know what the movie is called. The title also appear part of the colour scheme changing colour. I also added in the tagline "hunt or be hunted". Most posters include the tagline as it is something that promoted for the film and can be a memorable aspect of the film marketing. Just above the title of the film i added in an extra line "what lies..." this was added in as it was a convention i found on another poster for the movie hostiles which just above the movie stated 'we are all..." and then the title. I got inspiration from this as i felt it  fitted well with my storyline and overall design.

Here as you can see i also added in the cast at the top of the poster including the main three actors in the movie. This is so that the audience can see who is in the movie.  Beneath this i also added in three movie reviews from three different companys which entices the audience into the movie as they see that the movie is clearly good and is liked and so they know it would be worth the chance to go see it.






Overall i am really happy with the outcome of the magazine and i believe the conventions that i have added are all correct and effective.
