poster
This poster is completely different to the Full Metal Jacket, this poster is aesthetically pleasing due to the complementing colours of red and yellow that are eye catching. Also they use pictures and styles that relate to the film which adds a humorous effect if you've seen the trailer or the film. The use of No goats, No glory also adds a humorous effect and you can tell straight away that the film is a comedy. Also the having a picture of the stars is a great advertisement for the film because you know straight away who is featuring in the film. Also it gives you an idea of the style of the film.

Similar posters to ours
For the design they have used a simple colour scheme in being black and white. The contrast between the two colours highlight the title and the credits on the poster. The Full Metal Jacket font is a world war two nazi theme. This is so the audience can directly see what genre the film is. The use of the stereotypical vietnam war helmet shows it is about vietnam. The words Born to Kill which would have been written on many marines helmets. The use of the punch line 'In Vietnam the wind doesnt blow it sucks' which is a marine quote that is famous in America.

Planning For Our Film
For the preparation we have asked 16- 18 year old's their opinions of short films and what type of short films they would be prepared to watch. We found out that most would watch a sci-fi thriller film. They would want to be entertained and understand the plot but would be prepared to accept the sci-fi element in the film.
We have taken this information and used it in designing and creating our film. We have a target audience of people who like sci-fi films and people who would watch short film, so we will follow the conventions of the more popular films when we film to make sure our finish product is the most professional piece of work we could create.
