Film poster analysis 2.

This is a poster to advertise a new film called 'Lord Of War' which is an action film we can see this by the image been the main actors face made out of shells and bullets. This works effectively because we can still make out the face of a well famous actor 'Nicolas Cage' by having this actor in the poster suggests to the audience that its going to be a puzzle style film by all the other films he has been in with action. The image is very clever because not only it been the actors face but also about the movie with it been made up of bullets and shells. This poster works well as a whole because it is effective with the construction and that makes it professional and convincing. There are different types of fonts on the poster, even in the film title 'Lord War' are one separate text to 'Of' this works really well together because they are both the same font just different colours and sizes. however the 'Of' is the same as all the other texts like the actors name which is a well recognised actor from good films such as 'National Treasure' and 'Ghost Rider'. There is also a quote underneath the film title which says 'Where There's A Will There's A Weapon' which also suggests to the audience that this film will have crime and drama as the set genre. We can see that the target audience would be males possible females aged 15-45, we can tell this by the main image and the slogan underneath the film title, also the text that is used.
