Film Poster Analysis

This is an anaylsis of a film poster in order to see what I should do to make an effective film poster of my own

Location

here are some pictures of the locations for my scenes

Mise en Scene - Costume

In preparation of filming, I have been discussing how the characters will be dressed.

The Protagonist will be dressed smart and sensibly, as he is on the way to an exam. The Antagonists will be wearing matching neck scarves with their hoods up to hide their faces

Here is what they looked like on camera:

Storyboard

here is my storyboard, w hich has been through numerous revisions. I intend to follow this as closely as possible on the day of filming, but there may be more shots added on the day.

I have found some locations and pictures will be posted ina a seperate post

Casting Actors

Today I cast roles to the people acting in my project, and here they are:

Jonny Watson - Protagonist
Tim McConnell - Gang Leader
Tom Pobol, Rob Allen- Gang Members


For the purpose of verisimilitude they will all keep their real first names

The out of shot roles will be played by whoever is best at the time or me.

This is very much like Social Realism, as these are not major Hollywood actors, they are local actors.

Binary Opposition in Media

Binary Opposition is a pair of concepts that juxtapose each other, normally with a dominant ideology.

My Synopsis

This is the plot summary for my short film:

" "X" is a boy who dreams of studying ancient history at Oxford. His Father left him and his Mother is nowhere to be seen. The stress is getting to him but he is determined and juggles College work and a Job. The only thing deterring him from reaching his goal is the local gang"

My film will make use of the local area to save on money as well as add to the realism
