Post-Production: Film poster actor credits



  • I have included crediting actors which is a feature on all genre magazine posters.
  • However, conventional social realism film posters have names of small time actors or unknown actors due to most being of an independent institution nature like the film, "Fish tank" or "Kes."
  • Considering the narrative of the film trailer, I have added in two more actors names being, "Jessica Wilde" and "Hannah Marsden." The reason I have done this is because within the trailer, the main character Dan mentions his mother. By staring his mother as a main actor, in the film poster, shows she will be a dominant figure within the film. 
  • The idea of having dominant figures/ other actors that make up the persona that is Dan, is the reason why I have included the social realism convention of displaying family. This is why I have included another female leading actor who would play Dan's little sister which within the film, brings another side of character that will appeal to audiences.
