Flatplans

the main focus of my poster idea would be towards the mysteriousness and gloominess of the image, this would hopefully cause the viewers to want to find out where this image is and the context or intention behind it. h have chosen a bloody text to indicate that the movie is of a mature nature and to give an idea on what the movie will consist of, the linking tag line gives no indication to the films content specifically, although it makes the viewer want to know which 'people' find it easy to kill.



the main focus of this front cover idea was to have the main image that of the main character steping out from the shadows into the light which creates this eary mysterious look as the image only takes up a small ammount of space it was ecential to fill it up with other news and articles within the magazine, though finding a way to keep the page interesting will be hard.
i chose the name 'big screen' as to give a clear idea of what the content of the magazine is. costinuing with the idea that gold represents glitz and glamor i chose to outline the title in gold.
the image and the use of light almost makes him look menaceing and could give faulse impressions and be interprated by the reader as the antogonist



the main focus was to be the actor as big as possible within the page, with the barrel of the gun seeming to be in your face this is to show that hes a hard ass and goes by any means to get what he wants. the colours,other than the gold of the title, represent the background image and the genre in which it depicts, the darker colours to show the mystery of the image but also gives a sense of uneasiness. the red it to pop out from the page, to give important thinks a little more emphasis but also represents the blood to show that the main feature isnt all fun and games.

the gold for the title is to represent the glitz and glamor of hollywood movie stars, hense the name of the magazine, the gold is mainly to stand of the page whatever the background cover may be so that it is easily seen and recognised

the use of the gun barrel so close to the reader connotes the fact that life can be hard and you have to toughen up if you want to keep strong, this could relate to mast people now days as with the resession everyone is trying to keep living as normal life as they can.

You should provide more detailed, technical justification of this. You need to state why you've used certain features etc. and discuss the connotations that can be dervied from them. Remember to use the appropriate language e.g. mast head, sell line

Where is your poster flat plan?
