Research and Planning: Film poster analysis 1


Looking at this film poster I can tell straightaway that it is a zombie film. One reason is that the title is 'The Zombie Diaries' and the tagline has reviews saying 'The best zombie movie ever'. The colour scheme used on the poster has gives away the genre, the colour red has been used which is associated with blood, danger and the zombie/ horror genre. 

The image used on the poster appears to be a zombie, the image is blurred which could suggest the fast pace of the film and/or that their state of mind has changed and is unclear. The zombie appears to be reaching towards you as they have lost all control of their actions and all they want is to grab you and kill you.

The text on the poster is slanted which could again reflect the state of mind of the zombies. The billing block which contains the names of the production companies, director, actors, writers, producers and executive producers and the font used is steel tongs, this a typical convention of a film poster.
