Thriller
poster collage
This
wasn’t a significant part of the making of our film trailer, however I felt it
would be interesting to create a collage on those posters which drew my
attention the most. This collage features all different narratives of thrillers,
varying from time periods, characters, settings etc. Creating this collage gave
us inspirational ideas for our own posters. It heightened our knowledge on the
conventions that thriller posters present. Studying this collage made me
realise the importance of the model in the posters it is evident that in each
poster that is being published, the model is the most vital and engaging
element. For instance, all of these posters apart from ‘Red Riding Hood’
represent the models eyes being a focus point; this has purposely been done in
order to make an audience interact with the feelings that the actors may be
feeling- for example, the poster –Phone Both’ the model looks slightly scared,
suggesting that the narrative involves something which may cause an audience as
well as a character to be anxious about. The biggest similarity that all of
these posters represent is the dark colours and lack of lighting; this follows the
thriller conventions, as if the colours that were used were very calming and
light then it wouldn’t be proposed as a thriller film.
