So its time to focus on the ancillary tasks , how exiting. Its been a very stressful now its time to look more into making this poster. Thinking into our film being a romantic tragedy , i definitely need to think about making the poster a little bit lovey dovey. Also you need to make sure you are not giving too much away. Here is some interesting layouts of film posters that could redone with my film.
Looking into different layouts and structures of posters gets me thinking what films are similar to ours and what kind of posters they had. I researched into more films that had similar story lines as ours and this is what i found;
EXAMPLESSS....
i decided to pick one of the posters which has a similar story line to our film to see what kind of ideas i could get from it. The close up of the couple cuddling showing all the love and emotions which builds a picture for the audience and shows the closeness of the characters
this would be a good idea for my film as it would show their love and closeness to build the emotional impact right from the beginning. Also it not giving loads away which is another positive.
I looked at action posters to see if i could include any of the ideas into my poster. Yet trying to get ideas from a different genre is not effective. action poster consist of the main protagonist at the front , most of the time they are in a serious pose and are in action which i think won't go with our story which means I won't be taking any ideas from it.
These are varied posters of romantic tragedies , they link together by having both of the characters who have the romantic relationship on the front and they have the habit of showing the close love relationship between them but not give away the storyline to mostly shock the audience which I believe is a good idea to include in my poster for the film.

REVIEW
time to look at some reviews here is my favourite film bullet boy review:
Fresh out of prison, Ricky (Walters) wants to go straight but finds himself at the centre of an ever-intensifying cycle of violence. As gun crime spreads on London's streets, his innocent younger brother (Luke Fraser) becomes involved.
★★★
Bullet Boy could be accused of trying to punch above its weight. Comparisons to Boyz N The Hood and Menace II Society are inevitable, although the film's modest budget and retread of similar themes may stop it winning the same acclaim. The locations may change, critics will argue, but the story remains the same.
true up to a point. Like its US predecessors, Bullet Boy focuses on an essentially good young man trapped by his 'ghetto' upbringing - here, the mean streets of Hackney - hindered by a loose-cannon best friend and overtaken by vicious eye-for-an-eye That's revenge attacks. So yes, we've seen these elements before. But this is its own movie. Director Saul Dibb emphasises the contrasts in British society that make these problems distinctively here and now. He cuts between shots of cash-rich Docklands and burnt-out cars on wastegrounds, while showing how the well-meaning influence of religion is powerless against the soul-destroying influence of (imported) drugs, guns and gang mentality. Dibb should in particular be praised for his choice of lead - Ashley Walters, better known as Asher D, formerly of So Solid Crew. As a young father who himself has spent time in jail, Walters brings both truth and confidence to the roleLooking into my favorite film review it gave me ideas , picked out main parts that stood out to me such as the actor feedback.
HERE IS ANOTHER REVIEW I LOOKED AT :
10 things I hate about you - EMPIRE
Think The Taming Of The Shrew meets Dawson's Creek as Julia Stiles' ice queen is manipulated into a relationship with mysterious slacker Heath Ledger, all so her younger sister will be allowed to date. Will the ice queen melteth…?
★★★★★
Just as Clueless modernised Jane Austen's Emma, so this bright 'n' breezy teen comedy turns to classic literature for its inspiration - the target this time being Shakespeare's Taming Of The Shrew.
Of course, the Bard's story of a man-despising lass whose mind is changed by a vaguely dangerous love interest has already been filmed as Kiss Me Kate, but giving it a bang-up-to-date setting in one of the hottest genres around is such a good idea you almost wonder why they didn't think of it earlier.
Taking cues from its source material (the setting is Padua High School, the family name Stratford), 10 Things... focuses on cute, affluent sisters Bianca (Oleynik) and Katarina (Stiles), the former as sweet and popular as the latter is mean-spirited and sulky. Their dad (the always watchable Larry Miller) has imposed a house rule that Bianca can't start dating until her older sis does - not the best news for besotted Cameron (Gordon-Levitt).
In order to win the saccharine sophomore, he plots to find someone willing to date Kat - the ideal candidate being loner-with-past Patrick Verona (Ledger, in his first Hollywood role) - and the inevitable sparks fly. It all takes a good 20 minutes to establish characters and plot, and flounders quite worryingly at first, with jokes that feel forced and uneasy. Once the romantic merry-go-round kicks in, though, things pick up considerably, with hugely likeable characters and spirited performances (Stiles is especially noteworthy as a rapidly softening queen bitch). And the incidental players (notably Miller's teen pregnancy-obsessed parent and Daryl Mitchell's jive-talkin' English teacher) bag most of the laugh-out-loud moments, suggesting this is one teen movie that isn't just for teens. - looking through this review it presents that they are telling the plot which is not what i want to do with my blog to keep it mysterious and make people watch it
If it feels patchy, with some inexplicable plot developments- negative critisms (a guidance counsellor - the West Wing's Alison Janney - who vanishes after 15 minutes, a student whose obsession with Shakespeare is randomly and irrationally thrown in halfway through), 10 Things... still makes for a solid summer crowd-pleaser, with enough good-natured humour and wonderfully silly set pieces to carry itself through.
Oh, and Ledger's football field rendition of Can't Take My Eyes Off You (possibly the best musical sequence in a teen movie since Ferris Bueller's Day Off) is worth the price of purchase alone.
With the finest source material around given a modern zing, this teen comedy is somehow tried and true, but fresh all at the same time.
