Film poster analysis homework


1. 'Blade Runner' is a movie based around the concept of space due to the mise-en-scene. The poster shows props, such as guns and gadgets, which reinforce this particular concept. Also, the lighting on the poster use dull colours which are usually associated with space (such as yellow and brown).


2. The female actor has a cigarette in her hand which further suggests how this movie belongs to a film noir genre. In addition, the gadgets used on the poster emphasises how this film is originally a sci-fi.


3. The target audience for this movie could potentially be between the ages of 14-35 (65% male, 35% female), simply because the ages could relate to some of the key concepts of film noir. 


1. From the tag-line, this suggests that the movie is a parody. Also, the actors are all mocking other movies from their costumes (e.g. a priest is used - this mocks the movie 'The Exorcist')

2. 'Scary Movie 2' is a comedy movie due to the fact that the actors on the poster are all mocking other movie characters in a humorous way. 

3. The target audience for this movie would most likely be 14 - 28 years because of the adult humour.


1. I think 'Uzak' is about somebody who feels distant, lonely and isolated - the title is a literal translation of the word "distant".

3. I think the target audience for this movie is between the ages of 14-40 years simply because the movie has other sequels which has been running for many years.
