Date Night Film Poster

As clearly seen from this poster there are many key features that are often reflected in the majority of film posters. For example, the two main protagonists are featured in the poster, with their names clearly labelled above them. The font is large and of a contrasting colour to the background ensuring the viewers easily notice who is featured in the film. It is often the case that people are more likely to watch a film if big hollywood stars are featured and thus their names are often clearly portrayed on the poster. Similarly, the background is a very simple posed photo, yet the way in which the characters are featured gives a slight suggestion as to what the film will be about. For example, it is obvious that the couple will get into some form of mess during the film which can easily be depicted via the dirty state of their clothes. The title is clearly a very important part of the poster as it is shown in a larger and bold font, making it stand out from the background. Details of the director and editor are also featured in a smaller font as to audiences, this may not necessarily be the most important feature of the poster. Finally, the release date of the film into cinemas  is clearly shown, a very important feature for audiences.
