Film Poster (Planning)

Title:

• The Artist

Target audience:

• 15-25 age
• Male and female
• Same target audience as for film

Possible Themes/Genres:

• Highlight multicultural element
• Scenes of multicultural Britain in the background
• Comedic elements

Possible Taglines:

• If you don’t buy a ticket, you don’t win the raffle
• You’re never too far from a brush with success
• Pour myself a cup of ambition...
• From Armenia with ambitions

Possible Images:

• Artist holding canvas,with film information on canvas
• Artist with head through canvas
• Multiple images of artist, holding canvas, in different positions.
• Background = typically British/multicultural
• 'A' in artist, in the shape of an easel

Initial Ideas:

Artist 'action shot' with a collage of typically 'British' scenery.

Artist's head through a canvas - quite a striking image.

Artist holding canvas on which the title of the film is written.

This is the idea we settled on - a collage of different images of the artist holding a canvas, each with a letter which makes up the title of the film. Influenced by Help! and Here You Come Again album covers.
