Analysing a film poster


1. Is the movie title prominently featured? Is the text easy to read?
Are the main actors shown? If so, which ones?
Yes the text is easy to read as it is on a quite a dark background with a white font which makes the writing and the movie title easy to read. The main characters are shown as they are the only two people on the front cover so immediately someone looks at it they know who the main characters are. I wouldn't think that there's another main character other wise their picture would have been featured with these two people. The fonts bold as well 

2. What is the design of the movie poster? Does it accurately reflect the mood and tone of the film?
Yes I've watched the film so I know what vibe the film has and it does match with the film. The whole bad boy mentality, the way the mans face is screwed and hes overall persona.
The film poster is simple but yet detailed; it shows you the main characters, the movie name, website and the behind the scenes people e.g. director ect...

3. What other images are included?
Bike, houses, palm trees and a road.

4. What do you notice about the framing of the images?
it's a rectangular square just like any other normal poster.

5. What text is shown on the poster? Is there a catchy slogan? If so, what does it tell you about the movie's story?
There isnt a catchy slogan but the I like the way the movie title has a glow outside the font and i think they've done this to show that that's the actual movie title. A parts from that there's text showing the main characters name off the film (real name not film name).

6. Is there any other important information included on the poster?
Nope

7. Why do/don't you think this movie poster is persuasive?
I think it is persuasive because if there's not a lot of information on something; in this case two males in the middle of the road on a bike and you see the poster as your walking down the road or something you would want to know about what that is and that's how I felt.

I found this poster persuasive, yes.
