Creating my film poster

Creating my film poster

I used photo-shop to creat my film poster. I used this software as it is easy to use and lets me change specific aspects of the poster. I am also able to transfer images and text over on to the poster.

The first aspect I included in the film poster was the production logo. I decided to place this in the top left hand corner as it is an important part of the poster and it will get the production company recognition and promote the company through the film poster.

Next to the production logo, along the topof the poster i have included the tag line "Silence is sound" I decided to use this as it ties in with thefact that the characters are not talking and so there is a silence between them. The quote also links in with the comedy factor of the film as this is a pun.

I then included a large picture of the two main priotagonists Matt and Laura. I have positiond these in the middle of the poster as, along with the post-it notes, they are a very important aspect of the film and so deserve the main attention of the poster. They audiences eye is usualy drawn to the main image of the poster and so the first thing they see is the two characers with post-it notes over there mouths. This expresses the theme of the two characters not talking and so communicating through post-it notes.

I decided to add colourfull post-it note squares to the poster in hope to make them look like they are falling. I decided to add these as the background of the poster was quite blank. I added these as they are a main theme in the film an so are an important factor of the film and also the poster.


I have placed the title NOTES at the bottom of the poster. I decided to place the title here as i wanted the characters to be the main focus of the poster and so they took the centre. I used the  colours orange, blue, yellow, pink, and green as these are the colours of the post it notes. Orange and Pink are the two main coloured post-it notes used in the film.

At the very bottom of the film poster I have Starring Laura Briscoe, Matthew Wogan and Brandan Wiles. I also included Edited By, Produced By, Written By and Directed By. These are often found at the bottom of a film poster so I took inspiration from other film posters.
