mise-en-scene

Mise-en-scene is a french term meaning what is put into a scene or frame.

the character seems to be wearing a suite which means he is well educated or has high self respect, his hair is also combed back and slick, the facial expression makes him  seem a serious character to the audience.
the only major key light in this picture is one shining on his face, this makes the first thing you see on the poster his face. He doesn't really have any blatant facial expression, his eyes are piercing straight through you he has a veryserious look about him.

The camera shot is a zoom, its just zoomed in on his face and nothing else, there are some building in the background but you cannot really see them.

The setting is pretty plain, if you look closely
you can see the buildings behind him but nothing really stands out, only him and the title.

Harry potter and the deathly hallows part II

Harry potter part II is the final film to the harry potter series of films which were based on the books written by J.K. This last film is about how the 3 lead actors go around finding the horcruxes in order to kill Lord Voldermort, they use clues and Hogwarts, like all harry potter films, this one is great.
The film is aimed at teens and young adults who have grown up reading the harry potter books; you have to pay great attention to the film in order to get the twists. The film rating is a 12A which I think it should be a 15 because the film at times is quite scary and shows a lot of blood wars and battle it also has some strong language.A huge sum of £250 million pounds was spent to film and create both deathly hallow films. David Yates is the director of the film and he has also directed some of the other harry potters, his work is high in the film industry and he was won many awards.The 3 main characters in the film are Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson these 3 actors have been in every single harry potter film, taking the starring role.
Warner Brothers and Heyday films distributed the film, but also
leaves den film studios played a huge part.
Harry potter part II was released on the 7^th July for UK and in US it was the 11^th July 2011. They used huge posters and trailers in the cinema, during the MTV movie awards a preview of the film was given, busses and billboards were used to encourage people to go and see it

class survey..

In conclusion the most popular film choice was action and comedy, this is because the target market for the 2 areas appeal to people our age.
You can also see that American films seemed most popular because of their bigger budget and their bigger film stars to appear in them.
The main attraction to watch these films was by watching trailers on TV, and the previews at the cinema, this is because it leaves it open and you then want to know the rest of the film.
Mostly people went to the cinema to watch film, even though the cost was high they seemed to this they got a better viewing experience out of it.

The pros for watching films on DVD are that you can watch the film over and over, also you can pause the film whenever. Also you can watch the bonus features on the DVD this may appeal to a film creator, or a YouTube film maker, or someone who is really interested to behind the scenes. Although these are some good points even the littlest scratch on a DVD could ruin the DVD and could affect your viewing experience.
 The pros for watching a film at the cinema are that it has a big screen which makes watching the film better overall also it is better quality
because it hasn't been downloaded or copied also you could see it with more people which makes it a more social event. The con's for watching a film at the cinema are that it cost more than normal to get in, this could be at a disadvantage. Also people are sometimes really noisy at the cinema and could ruin your viewing experience. There are no breaks/adverts in the cinema so you would miss the film if you needed the toilet or a drink.
 The good point to downloading a film offline illegally/legally is that there is no wait for the film to come out on DVD etc. the con is that the quality is poor, it could skip, and you could get in trouble.
