Deadpool Film Poster Analysis

When analysing this poster I pick out the first things that stick out to me and that is the colours. The colours are black and red and these colours connote a sense of danger, strength, power and determination. Red is an emotionally intense colour and also represents a sense of willpower and rage. Black represents a sense of mystery to me.

There is some element of symbolism in this poster which is the costume and the tag line 'Bad Ass, Smart Ass and Great Ass' this concept sums up the tone of the film and provide a hint of the film's narrative, this can also become memorable to people. Humour is gained through this tagline and this is done to gain attention. There is little information on the poster because audiences would require some audience foreknowledge to understand. Other than that we have some visual messages highlighting the main character as well as the verbal messages. I think the intention for the audience is to capture their interests and invite them to discover a new character to make sense of a character they are already aware of.

Even though the star of the movie is popular, successful actor Ryan Reynolds doesn't appear on the film poster, and this is not the USP of the poster, which is normally vital on films that aren't of franchise in order to increase sales. The persuasive technique they have used is including the Marvel logo in the foreground. The Marvel franchise has a significantly wide audience and therefore they do not require any USP that would lead audiences to attend. The image of Deadpool and Marvel acts as a hook for the audience as they are iconic and well-known.

In terms of production context this poster actually doesn't include as much as expected considering it being a franchise. Instead it includes social media links, which can gain more of a large reception.

The poster may be considered inappropriate for the position the character has his hands in reference to the tagline, this could possibly be to gain attention from an older audience. Communicates effectively because it doesn't reveal anything about the plot leaving audiences open to interpretation. However, can create alternative representations to others.

Les Mis : Example of a billboard


This poster found on the underground is a representation of British culture and will allow spectators to find humorous as they face a poster that reflects themselves except with fictional character 'Paddington' in the centre. This makes the film much more memorable and is likely to stay stuck in your mind.

Film Ident

This my film ident that I'm going to use across all my products. I developed this in PagePlus X7 from a template and made ti yellow to connote the bright and light theme I had going on. I also chose the bird to reflect a sense of flight and to insinuate that my production company would soar in terms of deliverance.

Survey Feedback.

For my research I conducted a survey with some questions regarding my film poster, so that I could get an idea of what my audience  would want to see and what appeals to them. I started off with the basics and asked what attracts people into wanting to watch a film and whether the film posters have more significance on people about film,after they've watched the trailer. The feedback I received from the questionnaire showed that while some people enjoy film trailers, they also consider posters a vital part of the marketing campaign. 
When reviewing data, I began to discover that images on posters are the most appealing out of text and colours to audiences of 18 - 24 age range.I took this on board and will now take careful care when photographing my image and positioning it, as the image is a vital asset to my poster and can be used as a USP depending on how I manipulate the image in comparison to the text.Once a mock up of the image is completed I would conduct a
