Research and Planning

Tanaka's reaserch and planning from Tanaka Tiriboyi

Questionnair

The questionnaire was done so i could find out what my target audience would like in the trailer for the tommy man. It gives me a general idea of what my trailer include so that it impresses my target audience.

Film Poster Planning

This is the general idea of what I plan on doing to my poster. My characters are silhouetted add some mystery to the poster, I feel like it would complement the genre of my film and keep my audience guessing on what the main characters look like. But I added the actors names so they can put a face on the characters,  I positioned main character in the middle because it tells my audience that this is the main character due to hime being at the centre of attention. I put a another character on the bottom left corner to thinking it would add tension to the poster but i wasn't sure of what relation the character would have with the main one.  

I thought i would try challenging conventions by having the title behind character to build tension on the poster, this also makes my audience think that he is the main character due to hime being more important than the title itself. The text style is suppose to give of the this mafia effect in the 1920's - 50 this would give my audience a narrative sense giving them a hint that it is about gangsters. Including a tag line would set the tone of the film too by hinting the genre of the film

I have still yet to decide how my billing block will look like, where it will be, say or have and still need to decide what my tag line will say as well.        

Film Poster Development 2

I have slightly updated my film poster by adding an original image of my character. I decided to add a shadow to make the character look more intimidating and it also creates the image of that being a door with some light source so the shadow does add some realism to the poster a little bit.

I am still going to edited the white saluted character to be by adding the actor that is going to play him.
