This is a review of the film, Kick-Ass 2. Just in case someone didn't already know, it has "MOVIE REVIEW" at the top. The title of the film is in big, bold letters, making it easy for readers to notice. Above it, in smaller letters, it says "Starring Hit-Girl..." The fact that this is placed above the title suggests that hit-girl is the standout of the film.  A small box containing the basic movie information is located below the title. This is a necessary feature because it tells readers when the movie is released, and the age rating. Then you have the review and is placed around the 3 images used, and another important detail being the final, overall score located in the very bottom right. A score is needed mostly for readers, who don't want to read the full review, and just wanted to a simple answer of the reviewer's opinion on the film. It may convince a reader to see the film or not, depending solely on the score. The name of the reviewer is actua

This is a magazine review of the film, New Moon. At the top, "IN CINEMAS" is displayed widely, so in case someone didn't already know, it is clear that this a film review. The picture and the title are the main focus. It is important for the title to be very noticeable, as people need to know the title in order to see the film, and if they are interested in seeing the film, immediately seeing the title, would influence them to read the review. The image is very big, clearly showing the actors. The image is relevant, because the actors are famous, and they way they are being presented, suggests romance. The quote in red, at the bottom of the page, is for readers who would just like to see a quick outline of how the reviewer thought the film was. There is a slightly more in depth summary, in the bottom right of the page, which the star rating below it. Dark red lines separate each part of the review, making it more organised.

This is my film poster for my short film, that I created. I researched real film posters to get inspiration and know the conventions. The image of the character on the poster is from a screenshot I got from my footage. Because the background of the image would look unprofessional, I edited it on adobe photoshop. I also added an effect to the image of him, symbolising real magician posters, as a lot of them, have a drawn picture, rather than a photograph. I suggested that the short film is about a magician, as he is wearing a cloak and a hat, there is a glow effect around him, and under the title there is the caption, "Prepare to be amazed!" I put the actors names at the top, and under put a review, that has the genre stated, star ratings, and two awards on each side of the title. I also have the credit box at the bottom, and the names of the companies next to it.
