Analysis of Soap Poster/Billboard
For our poster/billboard we took our primary inspiration from programmes such as skins, simply because soap operas don't tend to have posters and if they do they are rare. We noticed that they mostly give the consumers an idea onto not so much the story line as that's the trailers purpose but to become accustomed to the main characters.
We decided to use a shot of two of the main characters in our new soap, lying down on the floor looking up towards the cameras with a straight looking face. We wanted to create an engaging photograph to use for our poster with mysterious straight faces to create interest to the characters personalities. We wanted to have them lying on a bare floor rather than a bed to give away a snapshot of the emotions of the characters connoting that they are in a bad place and they're emotionally drained.
The black and white photograph we used contrasts well with the bright purple and white color scheme of channel fours channel; E4. It emphasizes to the consumer what channel that the programme will appear on and gives some important information about the show. We decided to add onto our poster a Twitter hash tag which allows the consumer to get in contact with us and lets us feedback on information which makes the programme more personal. Social Media is a thing of the times and most programmes and up and coming programmes all tend to take full advantage of it.
