My chosen font for trailer and poster

Since looking and researching all the websites, from this I have chosen 10 fonts which I think will fit in with the Horror genre the most.












After having looked at the different websites and finding these 10 different fonts, I am now going to consider the different titles for my teaser trailer and decide which fonts look the best. 

I did a study group with 50 people and picked my 5 favourite fonts out of these 10. The fonts which I chose were Plane Crash, Headliner no.45, Gothham (which was used for The Purge), Giovanni (which was used for Annabelle) and Scorched Earth. 



Giovanni is the font which got picked the most by my focus group. This is also my favourite font as it best represents the Horror genre. Moreover, it has been used before in Horror films, such as Annabelle, which is a very well known and successful Horror film.

Poster analysis introduction

I am going to conduct research and analysis towards the conventions of film posters. I have looked at five different posters from a variety of genres, in order to see if there are similarities within the conventions. This will help my understanding of the depth in film posters, thus benefitting me when I am making my own.  Below are the five posters, each of different genres, which I chose to analyse the conventions of: 1) La La Land  2) Spider Man  3) Insidious 2  4) Hangover 2  5) The Notebook

SFX front cover analysis

This is one of the front covers from SFX magazine. SFX is a British magazine, which covers topics in the genres of popular science fictions, fantasy and horror, in different types of medias such as films, video games, comics and literature. The magazine was founded in 1995 and gets published every 4 weeks for Future PLC. The genre of the magazine can be told immediately by the 3D, silver masthead in bold. This futuristic tone has also been accompanied by a visionary dominant central image. The cover lines mention films; 'Dawn of the Apes' as well as tv shows such as 'Walking Dead', 'Super Natural' and 'Doctor Who'. All of these productions fit in with the Sci-fi genre, which SFX promotes.

Poster analysis 1

The first film poster I am going to be analysing is La La Land as has been classified as the musical genre.  The poster conventions I found for this film were smaller images, reviews, reference to awards, film title, name of stars and star ratings. I suspect the rest of the posters I analyse to include the same conventions, despite the differing genres.
