Magazine Cover Final


Saturday 10 May 2014

Poster final.

Below is an extra poster that I have decided to include due to my earlier research into posters from the same genre of film that have different posters for each character.

This is an interesting form of advertising not only due to it giving the consumer an extra glimpse into the content it is advertising but to also be an extra feature to include during the post production phase related to marketing by fitting in to the collector mentality of the consumer and promoting fans to collect all of the character specific posters.

Final poster design.

This is the final design for my movie poster.
For the final poster I will use the editing system Adobe Photoshop to add filters to make the actor seem drawn and cartoonish to match the superhero comic inspired narrative of the trailer.

Magazine Front cover analysis

I decided to look into layouts of magazine front covers using Empire and Total Film as examples to get a rough ideas as to what I need to include in my ancillary task.

Poster Idea's

After the photo shoots of each of the lead protagonists I have decided to create one poster for each character separately. Kick-Ass is an example of a production to use similar methods of advertising. Examples can be seen down below.


This method of advertising is a great way for the consumer to get a clear insight into the content of the movie they are about to go and see. It also seems to be a method of advertising that is becoming more and more popular due to the effective placement of the posters in cinema lobbies serving as a quick method of advertising before the viewer is even in the screen.
