Get to the Greek is a film made by Universal Studios in 2010. The poster is quite simplistic so it's hard to form am idea of what the film is about. The pose that the character holds suggests the film has an aspect of rock to it as he is holding up a typical rock star pose. The poster includes of the star, Russel Brand. The target audience would be his previous fans who are excited to see him pursue an acting career. The pose the other character, Jonah Hill holds connotes the idea he is maybe frightened or optimistic about the character behind him, however they are close so they must have some level of friendship, this forms an idea that the film's genre may be comedy. The mise-en-scene also helps form the idea it’s a comedy with rock aspect. The skull rings, black long hair, and black bracelets all suggest he is a rock star in the film. Jonah Hill, is in a suit, which suggests he is more formal and has a normal career. Universal Studios usually has big names celebrities in their films and on the poster to attract the audience.
Shaun of the Dead is a film made by Big Talk Productions in 2011.The poster shows a clear genre of the film, which is horror and comedy. The mise-en-scene helps show this through the colourless zombies, and Simon Pegg amongst the zombies looking more confused than scared holding flowers. The poster is mainly red and black. Red signifies, danger as well as romance. This is significant to the red blood the zombies will want, and the romance of the film, as Simon Pegg in holding flowers. Black signifies darkness, and as many horror films include, is darkness. Big Talk Productions are a smaller company and Simon Pegg appeared in and written three films from Big Talk Productions, which shows he is closely involved with Big Talk Productions.
