Parts of posters- Titles

Listed below are the important features of posters that needed to be mentioned:

Out of all the features on a poster the Title is usually the one that mostly sticks out, normally by being more bold and bigger or just simply in another font. Also the title to me is the main thing that sets the colour scheme, as it can

be one of the first things to look at. The examples that I have decided to use are from various posters that I have found of the Internet.

All of these titles have eye-catching techniques used in them. In Ocean's 13 the number has a different colour to the red adding more of an impact, in Sorority Row it has been underlined in what can be interpreted as blood and instead of a normal 'O' a letter has of the Greek alphabet has been used to convey the theme of Greek collegiate life, the Proposal has been highlighted by using a different font and colour this emphasises the idea of marriage etc. Again coming back to the idea of symbols/unique fonts used within the titles is a really good idea of portraying certain concepts of ideas other examples of this that I have found are shown below:

The '£' sign maybe something that is a theme in the film or it could be that something in the film has something to do with money. Something worth mentioning on this is that the '£' sign seems to be emitting more light than the other letters showing that this is important.

This film seems to be about numbers and maths, obviously. And this is reinforced by the '3' acting as an 'e'.

The idea that it's a musical is shown by the font that has been chosen. The light bulbs in the letters are normally those around actors/actresses mirror in there dressing room, hinting that this is a theatrical film with singing.
