Film Review Research

Stills from the film

Posed promotional pictures

Pun from the film title

This spread is taken from the latest edition of Empire magazine. This has three of what I would consider to be the main elements of a film review and things that I will definitely include in my review.

Title Pun Ideas

At first I thought having a pun in the title of my review would seem quite cliché but because it is such a dark and serious topic I thought it would give a light heartedness to the piece.

My ideas: Backwards Thinking Role Reversing Stuck In Reverse Going the Wrong Way Wrong Gear

Film Stills Ideas

I would like to have a 2 or 3 scenes that feature both of the characters. Going from my storyboard, I would most like to use shot numbers 17, 23 & 37.

Posed Pictures Ideas

For the posed picture I think it would work well if I had the two main and only characters in a picture together where they look relaxed and happy or even having them in a tackle position but with obvious happiness on their faces so to contrast with the film.

These are sketches of what I had imagined. I have tried to include the ribbon connecting them both in all of them as a symbol of them being the only characters in my film and the relationship that they share.

My sketches can be seen over the next slides.
