English Journal 8

A poster’s main objective is to catch your attention and inform you of something. After going over the reading in the book, it became apparent that there are countless different ways for posters to catch your attention. My favorite poster in the reading is the movie poster for “Vertigo”, starring James Stewart and Kim Novak. The main reason why I find it so appealing is because of how simple it looks. I also get the feeling of knowing exactly what to expect in the movie because in the front of the poster James Stewart and Kim Novak are holding each other tightly as if something intense is happening. My least favorite poster in the reading was the movie poster “Attack of the 50ft Woman”. The reason why I dislike it so much is because she is way taller than fifty feet in the poster. I wish the makers of the poster would have drawn her to scale instead of drawing her looking like she is five hundred feet.
