My Findings
My results show that only two out of ten people said they would not see the film however this may be because it is not their type of film. Also, nearly everyone agreed with the name, picture, font, layout and colours I have used. Seven of the ten people said that the picture i took for the poster was the best feature of the poster, whereas the other three said their favourite feature was the font, colours and title. Seven out of ten people who i gave the questionnaire to said that they did not think any improvements were necessary for the poster whereas the other three said i could improve on the title, layout and font. Overall, i am rather pleased by the feedback, as the feedback isn't mostly negative but was mostly posative and if there was lots of negative feedback then i would look to improve upon the feature/feautures that they deemed necessary, however this is not the case.
Film Poster Questionnaire Answers
Amber Spreadsheet
I think that the answers from my questionnaire were fairly good, and i think overall they were good feedback. Also most said they would not change anything so i do not think its necessary to change anything and I'm glad there was not loads of negative feedback.

I am writing to you, as there is an up coming event for a ‘Top Note’ awards ceremony. I have been asked to research three different printing products for this particular event. Its research for invitations, posters for the award winners and VIPS, lastly programme sheets for all the guests invited.
All the requirements needed when making the invitations and programmes are very specific. The posters should be created by an art student to reflect the creative natures of the award winner’s work. The sufficient number of poster for the university site is 30.
The invitations should be made from a high quality card, so they have a good smooth fell to them. There will be 40 award winners and 25 VIP guest. Last of all the programme is only in running order and can be mass printed on A5 sized paper, 300 will be enough to cover the largest number of guests expected.
There are five different print technologies I have investigated but only four that will be suitable, I recommend the following as best for each task.
Intaglio
This type of printing is very time consuming on detailed things. Intaglio it needs a highly skilled print maker to create it. Also to make the product, it is very expensive to create, this means that this method is not suitable for the requirements they wish to have as it is more suitable for a home as it is very high quality work.
Letterpress
This type of printing process is expensive. The method includes rollers within the printers. It can print a picture/image quickly and repeatedly. Each letter is set in the block by hand, so requires perfection. I think this technique would be ideal for the invitations, as the writing would be printed on neatly and accuratelyadvertising the event well, it has a nice feel and presentation set to it, so could even just be for the VIP invitations.
Linocut or Woodcut and letterpress printer
The linocut method requires, engraving and scraping the access, that wants to be used, it leaves a outline of the image or the text, advertising the event that wants to be presented. Then the colouring of ink is placed around the outline, so that the foreground stands out with different colouring. Its then placed through a letterpress printer that fits the ink and colour into the grooves. This process I think would be suitable for the posters, as there are two types of mechanical printing techniques being used, so its not going to be classed as the ordinary, that being just to print it from a printer. It requires both hand and digital printing, so has an amount of skill being used, so therefore will be expensive. This money I think would be able to be spent, as there is less expensive options for the other products leaving more money tospent out.
Offset Litho or digital
Offset litho printing is suitable for large numbers, as it prints rapidly at a quick pace. It produces mostly textand writing. Digital printing is considered as a new technique. It is a cheaper option as you can use less expensive metal plates. This is more suitable for smaller numbers to be created at or around 500 copies.Its a quick and easy method, and you can also change the data easily and adjust the blocks of lettering. This process I think would be suitable for the programmes as this is the most be printed.
Overall:
Overall I think that for the programmes to be created, the method that would be most suitable would be the offset Litho/ digital printing, as its the cheapest option and is best for large numbers. Photocopiers will rapidly print copies of the programme, for very cheap, as low as 5p, so once printed the require amount, which is over 300, this will only work out on average to £15.00. This will then leave a fair amount to be able to spend on the invitations and the poster. The amounts required for these products are less amounts, 40 invitations, 25 VIP, and then 30 posters. This helps, as the letterpress for the invitations and the linocut for the poster will work out in the budget, even though they are expensive techniques because we have money left over at £485.

I decided to add a name onto the actual bottle, because, despite the easily recognisable design, i thought it would be good to add the name, so people new what it was called. I also decided to put the name on the bottle as 'Extreme Taste', because for short it will be ET, which to most will mean Extra Terrestrial and an Alien is the design of the bottle, so it is fitting.

Titles for my Beauty and the Beast remake..
- Beastly
- Beauty and the Beast
or Monster
- The Beast
- Pretty Girls and Beasts
The most likely title i will use for my film poster is 'The Beast' because i think it is relevant to what the film will be about and also because it is elusive and does not give away too much. I think people will agree with my choice of title for these reasons, i will also ask peers from my class on their opinion.

Permissions to use a photograph in a print product
Online, not really.
Elsewhere? Yes.
The photographers still have their copyrights to the picture, and so before you publish it in a magazine, it has to be approved by the owner in writing. But for mainly non-profit enterprises, most likely. So the answer to your question is that it does depend.

Beauty and the Beast
This moodboard is of different Beauty and the Beast posters. As i intend to also make a Beauty and the Beast poster for the film 'Beast' that i invented, which is based on Beauty and the beast. I could use these posters to help with ideas for my poster.
