...Poster 3: The Kitchen is the Key to Victory. This picture depicts a lady in a kitchen setting. There is an image of a large golden key instead of the word Key. This has more visual impact than using the word, it draws the eye of the viewer and makes them think more about the message being put across. The lady in the picture has a large saucepan in her hands which has steam coming out of it. There is a large aga style range behind her. The saucepan lid is on and the viewer cannot see what is in it. This allows the viewers imagination to create images of all sorts of delicious contents, in the hope of that it creates thoughts of alternative meals to bread. The words The Kitchen is the Key to Victory are in golden letters to give a sense of the richness and prosperity that are to be associated with victory. Below these words are the words Eat Less Bread. These are in red for more impact and to get the message across, it is an instruction, not a request. This poster is one of the many posters which were used during rationing, it is designed to involve the viewer so that every citizen feels that they can help in the War effort, they don’t have to be fighting on the front line or working in the factories making weapons, tanks or planes. It makes the housewife’s left behind feel that they have a huge part to play in the War effort which will then drive them to economise helping to alleviate the pressure on the Government to feed the population.

The Assignment and Rationale: For this project, you are required to find three legitimate, same-genre movie posters from the last decade and write a report revealing your genre awareness findings and conclusions about both the stability and flexibility of the movie genre represented in these three posters. You may choose the movie genre, and you may find that you’re working with a multi-hyphenated genre (e.g., thriller-crime-drama). This is fine, as long as you can find three movie posters that represent this particular genre. However, I advise you to not go too obscure in your choices, as this might limit or make difficult your selection, and I also request you stay away from choosing posters for movies already clearly linked (e.g., sequels, trilogies). I encourage you to consider the country of origin for the movies and posters, as this will alter/change the content of the poster. For the sake of uniformity, please use the U.S./English version of a movie poster. The movie poster functions as a shorthand version of all that the movie is trying to represent or...

...Abstract In this paper I will be talking about three different movie posters of the American War genre. First I will describe where I found the movie posters, and then I will state the results of the visual elements. Then I will analyze, and critique the results of the findings. Introduction When someone walks along the hallway of a movie theater, they will see a series of movie posters which are there to advertise the movie. Humans are known to act on their first impression, and this is important in advertising because it will either attract or defer a potential viewer. Most people have a favorite movie genre, so they’re more inclined to watch a movie that appears to fit under their genre. Through the movie posters a patriotic theme is given off, which will invite in the intended audience. American War movies have very similar posters, although they will have different stories. Today I will be talking about three different movie posters of the American war genre: “American Sniper” (See Fig.1), “Fury” (See Fig.2), and “Lone Survivor” (See Fig. 3). The main purpose of this report is to find and analyze the visuals of the three movie posters. Methodology In order to try and test my hypothesis, I will need to find material that will allow me to gather the appropriate information.

...The thing that caught my attention about this poster is the Marine on the front. The way he is standing and the look on his face draws attention to the poster. The main colors of this poster are Red, White, and Blue. I think these colors were used to draw attention to the poster and to show how it is affiliated with the United States of America. They were used to show that by joining the Marines, it would show your patriotism for America. The main symbol of this poster is the Marine’s uniform. This symbol was used to show that the man is serving his country and is proud to be a Marine. It was also used to draw men to join the Marines because the uniform looks formal and tough. The purpose of this poster is to recruit troops. This poster falls into the category because it says to join the U.S. Marines and to apply to the nearest...

...For my Media AS Coursework I decided to choose brief one from the options we were given. I then further decided to choose task one and two following this. I decided to create a 3-minute film opening and a 3 page A4 information booklet about the opening sequence. I decided to choose these because I felt that they would enable me to create my best work. I wanted to base my film around a target audience of young teen around 12+ as I knew that the basis of the film I was going for was a bit harder to understand for younger generations. Before I decided to create anything I first carried out some research. Firstly, I watched other sporting films such as ‘Forever Stronger’ and ‘Goal II’ as I knew that my film would be based around sport. I also contacted a man named Jimmy Gittings. Jimmy is a former Rugby League player who suffered a terrible injury which ended his career. He speaks openly about life after his injury and works for the charity ‘State of Mind’. I felt talking to him personally would enable more knowledge on the subject of depression in sport. I also looked at published booklets such as 40/20 Magazine and league weekly to get an understanding of how my designs are supposed to look. I felt that this information was key so that I could stick to the original codes of conventions of a proper magazine. The first task that I chose was to create a 3-minute film opening sequence. I decided to follow the brief and base my film around ‘a secret’. That secret obviously being that...

...After reading a remarkably captivating book named “The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian,” written by an exceptionally talented author named Sherman Alexie, I was under the impression that racism is one of the elements of identity explored throughout this book. This was because the main plot and the whole book revolves around the main character, Junior, taking risks and facing problems solely due to his race. Therefore, I chose to write a reflection statement and design a poster on, Race. The main idea behind this poster it that most of the time we are judged and people make decisions about us solely based on our race. This situation is present in this book numerous times. One of the examples is shown on page 63, when Junior says,“None...
