1. The Romance Of Loneliness 2. - Independent production companies above title. - Actors names below title (not very well known) Conventional for independent. But in the middle of the whole poster. - Mostly black and white with pops or red and orange. - Hints that there is colour in the mundane lives of the characters i.e. woman on chair in colour implies theres more to see if you look beyond the black and white.- Unclear handwritten font (reflects identity theme of finding oneself and makes it more personal), some letters lower case and some capital shows informal and relatable film style. - Woman depicting a conventional image of loneliness but her face is hidden (could be anyone opens to the audience) 3. - Opens with prod. Company logo. - Banjo/guitar strumming western country soundtrack creates comedic effect as it cuts to the woman with a run down car seemingly in the middle of nowhere. - Audience left to guess who, where, what and why with first establishing shot. - Independent comedy drama genre established from first shot. 4. - Cuts between shots like these. Photo (left) and short take of the arrival of a woman (bottom) - Similar in framing, the colours and general image/setting are the same. (Naturally lit wide shots) - Fragmented but carry the same theme and story. - Balloons show the childlike nature of friends and growing up/coming of age. (Nostalgia) - Woman arriving blends into colours of frame and appears swallowed by surroundings. Lower down centre frame makes her looks new/finding 5. - Contrasting short take and snap shot/photo edited together again but very different. - Intimate/friendly feelings stirred, pinks/whites/soft lighting. Women look similar. (Centre frame in wide shot) - Similar image again both wide shots. - (Below) Women look separated, bleak colours, age difference representing different times but same themes 6. - Edited in a way that mimics remembering a memory and contrasts in loneliness and friendship again. - Careful framing that makes the overall trailer flow cohesively. - Difference in soft/low key and harsh but natural lighting throughout the trailer. 7. - Difference in lighting again showing a difference in time period or different relationships. - Naturalistic way of marginalising different relationships. 8. - Mix between handwritten/ink and capital block letters. - Actors underlined keeping handwritten personal feel to the trailer. (Letter to the audience) - Ending with release info. (Too vague for our film however)
