Evaluated production work: Assignment 2
1)
What typical features (conventions) of a film poster have you used? How
do they help to make the poster effective in attracting an audience?
(Key conventions include title, release date, institutional information,
reviews, a central image etc.)
When researching fighting film posters, I found out they all have something in common which is a central image. For that reason I used the main character for the central image and wearing a martial art suit to make it more related to fighting.In many film posters people use a central image to show the audience the important characters and to show there attentiveness towards the main character for the upcoming film. In order to make the central image stand out even more, i used a UFC cage as its background to make it more interesting for the audience. As well as using a central image, i also used a tagline "FAMILY IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR" which will make the audience imagine what will happen during the film. The title "VENGEANCE" tells the audience what the film is based on which is fighting. The institutional information is stationed at the bottom of the film poster. Even more, the institutional information is to see who are the main people who created the film etc.
2) What is the genre of your film? How would your target audience know this from design of your poster? E.g. Colour scheme, font choice, mise-en-scene (props, costume, character, setting).
The genre of the film is Action/Drama/Fighting from the poster you can tell that these these genre's link to the poster because it is about fighting and some drama also with a lot of action. The costume also links to the fighting genre as the main character is wearing a martial art suit to also support the background.Which also means it is related to sport as martial arts is a type of activity.
3) What institutional information have you used to try and sell the film and how does this appeal to the audience? E.g. 'From the Producers of...' / Star power / Directors / Reviews.
With institution information i have used the Warner brothers as i would want to make my film as they are a successful business. I have also included positive reviews to show the audience how amazing the film is. I also included the insitutional information at the bottom of the film poster. This will encourage audience to go watch it as they enjoyed other films by the same director.
4) Where are there examples of synergy between your storyboard and trailer? (Synergy is the link or interaction between two different media texts).
There is synergy between my poster and storyboard.This is because i used the main character for my storyboard as well as using him for my central image. I have also began my storyboared with the warner brother logo also i used the logo to put in my film poster to show its more professional and a better look for my movie.
5) What representations have you used in your film? E.g. gender / race / age / nationality / place)? Are these reinforcing or challenging stereotypes? This is a good BBC Bitesize page on the key concept of Representation that will help with this question.
The representation i have used in my film is gender which is mainly based on men fighting. The women are part of relationships in these types of movies. The race is mixed and we dont tolerate racism in fighting movies. The age is also mixed from any ages to 10+ and beyond. The place is mainly based in Indonesia in the main parts of the film. The nationality is a various which is all sorts of different kind of nationality in the film.

Representation Analysis
In the trailer for Captain America men are represented as the heroes protecting the victims from the "enemies". Hollywood action films support the representation of men as they are heroes and they affect the world as they are trustworthy and brave. Men are also known for being very protective towards its country. There are not as much women as men in this trailer. This may effect audience that this trailer is discriminated towards women. The authority is represented for the audience to show us that police are there just in case.
