Making the movie poster: choosing the image

Here I got the inspiration from the ‘Four Christmases’ poster. They are wrapped in ribbon, connoting towards Christmas, and so with my picture chose to wrap the characters in a large map, in order to obviously signify travelling.

I this photo, the characters in both posters are back to back against each other, in order to show a connection between them but the fact that they are not facing each other shows some form of divide between them, in my images case, this would be the fact that the characters live in separate countries.

In this photo our inspiration was taken from ‘A Cinderella Story‘. The female characters are on the male characters backs, showing a relationship between the two. The direct mode of address when looking at the cameras draw the audiences in.

‘The Vow’ poster gave me the idea of the characters looking at one another rather than the camera, to show a deeper connection between the two and create an absolute link to the ‘romantic genre’. This was the final image I chose, because I believe it is interesting, romantic, and will appeal to the target audience.
