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.
