Our task was to design a poster that miss represented a film. We chose 'Mama' which is a horror involving 2 abandoned children. We decided to represent it as a family comedy. We selected a photo of the two girls from the film, we added the title in the style of a child's writing on the wall. We also added the tag line; 'life is two-riffic with twins' to give the idea it may be about troublesome twins. We also added some pretend reviews; 'double the trouble' and 'dead funny', 'dead' being the horror giveaway but 'funny' being the miss representation. In addition we drew some child like drawings on the poster to display the audience being children. Adding a white back ground with bold red writing is also a typical comedy poster theme which we tried to mimic. Again using bright, bold colours to give it a comical atmosphere. Poster miss representation is often used to gain a bigger audience, by changing the genre from horror which its audience is typically adults to a family comedy increases the audience to the whole family watching it.
