Poster Analysis


MEAN GIRLS
The title on the film poster is really bold as well as the realise date also the use of the colour is mostly all pink this could be at attract young females. Also the way the girls are whispering in to one of the girls ears could show  could be gossip and could be conflict between the girls this is because the girl on the left is a bit separated as in the others are closer together.
Also the girl on the left looks more serious then the other girls as the girl next to her is smiling and the other girl on the right looks like she has a lot to say to the girl in the red.

The genre of this movie would be around 12  this is because the use of girl and the way the girls are sitting it doesn’t look like there would be any type of fighting or any violence with in them they  look sort of calm and also leaning on each other.
The use of the grey in the background is a dark grey and a light grey, the dark grey is mostly on the girl on the left and the lighter grey is on the girl on the right this could show there could be a problem with the girl on the left.
The to girls  in the middle could be the main characters of the movie also the on in red could be more important then the other girl in the middle.
The film poster clearly shows it is aimed for young girls this is because the  people on the film poster are all girls. Also the clothes they are wearing is mostly pink this would attract young girls.
The genre of this film could be a drama movie this is because of the way the girls expressions are also there body language (the way they are sitting close together) and also the use of the word ‘MEAN’ in the title shows the girls are not really going to be nice girls, maybe not nice as friends or there not nice to other people.


The tag line is not quite bold but does stand out  on the film poster, also the way they are written is quite funky and also the tagline ‘Watch your back’ this can also show the girls are not very  nice  as in person ,because when someone tells you to watch  your back this means they don’t like you and this could have something  to do with arguments and maybe fights.

 The typography shown to be plain and bold this makes it eye catching for the target audience also the colour is used to be noticeable.

  1. Melicia, in all three instances you have carried out a detailed analysis that is to near distinction standard. You have shown that you are able to discuss the way meaning is put across, whilst making reference to relevant terminology and examples. To improve you would need to identify the target audience for each poster in relation to age, gender, ethinicity and interests and explain in more detail how they have been targeted. Your Mean Girls poster also need to be re-inserted as it is not showing up.
