Research and Planning - Magazine Front cover

When creating ideas for our Film Poster, we realised that we preferred one of the designs to be more suitable for our Magazine Front Cover. When doing our audience feedback this design was not as popular as the other three designs, everyone found it plain and boring, therefore we felt the magazine front cove also consists of cover lines, a Mastehead and potentially other photos therefore meaning we needed a basic design which would still represent Jack perfectly as his character.

We the decided to practise our design on photo shop, as well as trying out different poses that we may potentially prefer to our original idea. After trying differnt idea, our favourate still was our original choice. We felt it was fun and clearly shows the film is about dance. It is also extreamly cheesey just like our film idea.

Research and Planning - Poster Practice

When designing our Film Poster ideas we felt that the most important thing is knowing that they would be possible to design on Photo shop. Therefore we have created all of our poster ideas by using each other as models, practising all the designs we had chosen. Not only did this show us which ones were possible to create, it also helped us pick our favourite one out of the four.

Research and Planning - Ideas of Poster Taglines

"Beat, bop and breakdance to you."

"Rocking and rolling to your screens."

"Every journey begins with a first step."

"One step can change your world."

"The dance floor will never be the same again."

"The music is on his side."

"You've got to dance like noone is watching."

"Take a step towards dancing, a leap towards your dream and a jump towards fame."

Research and Planning - Audience Feedback on Film Posters

Research and Planning - Film Posters

During this lesson we designed ideas of film posters we could potentially use for our final product. We wanted to make the posters fun, colourful and eye catching to help represent the film as well as the characters.





This film poster gave us an idea of using a colourful
effect that would really catch the audiences eye. The
effect used on the actors faces changes the colour of the
skin which instantly makes them stand out. I love this
effect and i feel it would work perfectly with our poster.






  This poster gave me the idea of having the separate sections

which i feel are extremely eye catching. All the characters

personalities shine due to their expressions, clothing and their accessories.

 

This poster gave me the idea of having just

the main character as our poster front cover.

this poster of instantly tells me that the

film is a comedy and the main character 

is a fan of hair dressing due to the props in his hand

           

This is an idea of the font we would be using, we thought it was perfect as it's fun, glittery and eye catching.
