Original. Remake.
I struggled to match the fonts and the layout of the small print as I couldn't read what was in between the actor’s names.
Red and white are the key colours used in this poster. Red has connotations of danger and lover and white has connotations of innocence and purity. The fonts used are impact and lilyUPC. Impact makes the title stand out massively in contrast to the plain white background. The main image a close-up of the main character. The image is placed in the centre of the poster and all the text is centred above and below the image. This is done so that the poster is satisfying to look at, everything is inline. In the main image, a young man is represented as being laid back. We know this because of his pose. The character is looking directly into the camera which makes it feel like he is engaging with the audience.
The red and white colours connote that this film has elements of love and comedy. I know that red and white is often used as a rom-com convention as it is used on lots of posters for this genre.
The tagline is supposed to be humorous. The word struggle is used to describe someone relaxing which are two opposing words.
The are no critics or reviews on the poster which could suggest that film didn't do so well or that this is just a poster promoting the film before it came out. The information and billing block is at the bottom of the poster in small print. This information is not important as the title or image, therefore, it goes that the bottom as to not take too much attention away from the other information. the billing block contains director, producer, actors and distribution company.
The is no date on the poster or an age certificate which implies the film is old and has already been released.
I think this poster is good because it is simple and keeps the focus obvious. This might not interest some audiences as they might be or interested in colourful and exciting posters.
