All pupils must ensure that their planning for their two film posters is up to date - this includes an analysis of film posters from a variety of different genres as well as three planning exercises for the two posters you are going to be producing. One poster should represent women in a stereotypical way and the second in an anti-stereotypical way. As part of your homework, you are required to consider how you will construct the film poster evaluation. The set questions for this can be found below:

What was your aim for this task? What have you had to do?

What are the ideas behind both of your films and who would produce this film text? (Film companies)

Who are the chosen target audience for your films and how does the text appeal to that particular audience?

 of the women in your film posters?

Evaluate the success of your decisions made throughout the panning process.

Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of your product – how could your work be further improved?
