Kids (1995)

Kids (1995)
this movie follows a group of teens who go around New York city drinking, smoking and deflowering virgins.
The trailers represents the teen characters in two contrasts. Firstly it represents them as very rebellious and irresponsible. This following the stereotype of teens. There is a longshot in this trailer and it shows a group of teens jumping and chasing someone, this connotes violence and rebellion following the stereotype.
There is a another longshot that shows two teens crossing the road while holding a bottle of alcohol that has been wrapped in a paper bag. This again connoting rebellion against the legal system since they are drinking underage. This starts to build up the theme of the movie, it being drugs and sex driven teens.
There is a panning mid-shot of two teen French kissing this represents the stereotype of teens since they are seen as very sexually interested

The Bourne Supremacy (2004) poster

This movie is part of a Quadriology, this meaning that its a popular film to receive the support to be able to get 4 movies. However this was the sequel to the original at the time of release. This movie received a rating of 7.8/10 by IMDb and 81% by Rotten Tomatoes. The budget for this movie was $75 million and it was Produced by Universal and The Kennedy/Marshal Company.

The poster doesn't tell the audience much. however the colour keeps suspense since black can be seen as a colour of mystery and cluelessness since black is a colour that represents darkness. Bourne is in Bold this is so that is stands out and shows a clear relation to its previous movie. The white colour of the writing can connote perfection and completion this can imply that the character on the front of the poster is perfect and the white at that point could give imply more closure to thee franchise.

Matt Damon can be seen on the front of the poster since plays the main character in this movie; this could be attempting to use star power since its showing that the main character is played by a very famous actor of that time.

The Gallows

The Gallows is a 2015 horror thriller that is set in a high school.  The movie had a budget of $15,000 which is a very low amount compared to the amount that the big 6 uses. This movie was directed by two directors Travis Cluff and Chris Lofing. These directors aren't very known however they have been featured directing films such as Kid Hulk (2011) and Gold Fools (2012), both films aren't very popular and didn't become very successful. The gallows took a large hit in terms of rating after release since now its rated 4.3/10 on IMDb and 15% on Rotten Tomatoes.

In groups we watched the trailer and we had to note down information that we gained from the trailer.
Firstly the narrative wasn't overly clear however it gave the fact away that it was about a haunted high school that is being investigated by students. however not much else was explained.

The other information that the trailer gave was release information and website names these would help the audience find out more and the release information could create a hype for the audience since they know when the move would be coming out

There seems to be not a large amount of setting shown, this only being because its all school based; this meaning that the overall setting is a high school however there are sub-setting within this school. there are about 5 setting within the school that can be seen in the trailer they are:

1. theatre
2. hall-way
3. backstage
4. hall
5. Cupboard

There are four main teenage characters in the trailer. there are also a couple of police officers however they don't seem to be a relevant part to the overall narrative. They seem to be very stereotyped in terms of teenagers since they are seen breaking an entry and vandalism, these are things that are commonly committed by teenagers this making it a stereotype
