DVD poster 1

Front

The main character with what looks like a side character, we can see from this they are in a battle or definitely middle of action this can show the creator wanted you to wonder what was happening in it making you wanna watch it. It uses a Medium long shot with the background blurred this could show a hint of mystery and want us to find out what it is
The title is at the very top of the screen and uses a sans serif font its very bold and t he typography can show us it a very technological advanced show with the grey hint and metalic material
The tagline 'LIVE, DIE, REPEAT' has connotations of a cycle of life and the fact its in full uppercase and with a yellow colour that contrasted with the rest of the writing which is grey shows its very important piece of text. It could also show that this movie is quite graphic
The colour pallet that is used consists of: dark blue, grey, yellow, orange. These kinds of colours tell us this film could be Sci-Fi
Additionally the two main characters actor names are place on top of the title in a sans serif font
The fonts of all the texts are the same: sans serif
The genre is sci fi/action

Back

There is no main image on the back of this poster
There are 5 thumbnails shown each showing aspects of action and Sci-Fi they really make you curious on what happens in this move with the creature in one ships in others
The images could show its a man vs creature show with the main two people plus others fighting those creatures
there are many enigmas of what are the creatures and what doe the tagline mean same with all the characters and futuristic tech in the thumbnails
the blurbs are talking about defeating aliens which relates to the Sci-Fi/Action genre of the film
The colour pallet is mainly a dark army blue with hints of white and green these relate to the genre as the show is about the government killing these aliens
Additionally other info like characters the rating production company producers etc are placed near the bottom
There looks to be a women soldier in one of the images which challenges stereotypes of women not being able to fight

DVD Poster 2

Front

The main image is a close up shot on the two main characters faced in very close proxemics to each other, this would tell us these two characters are very close to each other or even dating
The title is in the top corner and it uses a Serif font and a spochy grey look to it, it also have extra lines spiking out of some of the points
the tagline "When you can live forever. What do you live for?" communicates a question for the audience hooking them into it
The colour palette is a very dark black colours but the pale faces fo the characters stand aout alot showing there importance
there is no other information
only one font is used
the genre is horror/action and romance

Back

the main image is off all the characters and uses a mid shot
3 thumbnails are uesd and they show hints of romance and action between the characters
the images suggest its gonna be a romantic action and a heroin story
the enigma that the thumbnails create could be: What is the chemistry between the characters
i cannot read it..
the colour pallet is also very dark black and blue colours which connotes to the horror aspect of twilight also gives a hint of mystery
only one font is used and it makes us think of quite posh things
steryotypes that are used are that the women is the damse in distress and the boy is here to save her
