Poster review - The Dark Knight

There is a little bit of writing at the top which says ' Welcome to a world without rules' on it'shown it doesn't really mean anything, combine it with the sky filled with smoke and the decaying building, it adds a huge amount of meaning to it. Giving clues but no answers like this poster does is very effective, it makes the posters audience question what is going to happen, and whats gone wrong, even people that aren't particularly fans of batman will still be interested to see if batman can handle his next challenge. The poster doesn't just get the current audince excited, it gets others that have not seen the films interested. The flaming bat on the collapsing building makes the audience think maybe batman is responsible for the destrucion, this again is very effective as it gets the audince asking questions and therefore interested. The main attraction to the batman franchise is the hero himself, so having him standing strong, infront of a collapsing building with his fists clenched adds so much exitment to the film as the audience can't wait to see him beat some bad guys to a pulp.

I have chosen will to be in my film as he is more than capable of acting to my required standard, and he can follow instrucions well, this will make it much easier to do the filming as less time will be spent telling him what to do, correcting him and re-taking shots.

Actor interview - Adam

What is your favorite movie genre? I would say action
How many movies do you watch a month? About 6-7
How many of these movies are action films? 5-6
 What do you expect from an action films. The normal clichés and conventions, like guns, a damsel in distress and explosions.
Have you ever participated in a film of any kind before? No, but I have acted in small production for my drama GCSE.

 I have chosen Adam as one of my actors for several reasons,one of which is he achieved a drama GCSE this shows his acting ability,another reason is that we live fairly close to eachother, this makes filming more convienient and flexible, this allows us to film more in a day as less time is wasted travelling, this also makes it easier film on different days as we do not have to travel for ages.
