Doctor Strange Analysis


 1) In this poster you can see there is a man located in the middle of the poster connoting that he is the main protagonist.The cape he is wearing shows that he is some sort of superhero also shows that he is the main character. The lighting is very vibrant to show that the movie is  quite lively and most likely for entertainment.The facial expression expressed by the actor allows the audience to realise that the role the protagonist plays is very serious and important.His face is quite scruffy and his hair is messed up  which connotes that he has probably came from a fight. He is stepping outside of what seems to be a circle made of fire and entering a different area showing that the movie is supernatural and that he has a power to transport to different places by opening gates.The background has been all flipped and  turned around to show that a lot of events take place during the movie.The "Marvel studios" logo is placed to show that the company responsible for creating the movie is marvel studios also because if the audience enjoyed the movie , they could watch more marvel movies similar to doctor strange.The release date is also shown so the audience are able to be ready to watch the movie when it comes out .

 2) One way the trailer makes the audience want to watch the full movie is by making them ask questions to themselves.This is because in the beginning of the trailer ,Benedict Cumberbatch is sent to the hospital all beaten up. Therefore this makes the audience think how, how doctor strange was put in such a horrible state so to find out they would have to watch the movie and find out for themselves.Another way the trailer makes the audience want to watch the full movie is by containing supernatural things.This is effective because by adding supernatural things the audience then get indulged in the idea of escaping reality into a more interesting world.This then makes them watch it all as it is a change to their normal lives.Another way the trailer makes the audience want to watch the full movie is by having the main protagonist as a celebrity.This is effective because fans of Benedict Cumberbatch will watch the whole movie, maybe not because they like the specific idea about sci-FY but instead because they are extremely loyal fans of Benedict. Also they include Rachel McAdams so not only fans of Benedict watch the movie,but fans of Rachel  also watch the movie out of respect for her.

I’m impressed that you’re writing in some depth from the very first blog task this year – that’s a brilliant sign and suggests you’ve got the right attitude and should definitely be aiming for those top grades. I’m particularly impressed with the Skyscraper film poster analysis – the fact you’re already using media language such as ‘sans-serif’ font is an extremely good sign (I imagine you’ve been speaking to other Media students to help you here but that’s not a bad thing!) Along similar lines, your points on representation in the Skyscraper poster are accurate with regards to masculinity in action films and this is absolutely brilliant in the first few weeks of Media!
