Fantastic Film Posters
1. Poster Planning
Before starting encourage the children to have a good think about what they want to include and where each object will be. Sketching a plan of the poster might help.
2. Interesting Images
A film poster needs to tell the story of the film to encourage people to want to watch it. Children could choose to include key characters or interesting features from the film.
3. Brilliant Backgrounds
Remind the children to use the whole page! The picture behind the characters is just as interesting and important as the characters and it gives clues to where the film is set (e.g. in space, in a jungle, under the sea, in the city)
Capturing Smashing Scenes
1. Telling Tales
Ask the children to think of a scene from the film that describes a dramatic or exciting event or a crucial moment in the film. For example, in the scene in Over The Hedge where the animals wake up to find a strange green, leafy object has appeared in their wood.
2. Screen Stars
Think about what the characters are doing in that scene e.g. are they scared, excited, upset. Encourage the children to draw the characters’ facial expressions and think about where to place the characters in relation to each other.
3. Excitingly Eye-catching
Scenes from children’s film are rarely dull so encourage the children to use bright and interesting materials when creating their scene.
