Deconstructing Film Titles

In today lesson we began to deconstruct a number of different film title. We looked at different genres titles and the importance of word and images. The first step when doconstructing, we analysised the word and looked for clues to what the film was about.

'Case 39' was one of the tittle we deconstructed from our sheets. The word case connotes law and crime this could suggest that the film has something to do with authority and is federal. However when looking at the word our suggestion where very limited but when we eventually saw the image of Case 39, we began to get a clear idea of what the film title connotes.
The images give me more understanding of what the film is about. The Font used looks very suffisticated and the back background suggest mystery and makes word Case look very important ans serious. from seeing the image we can see clearly that the fil is horror based. the images help me im understand the basic meaning of the film.

The American brought many suggestion to mind. the american could connote war and patriotic the word American suggest pride and believe. then I saw the film poster and began to denotate it. the poster now sugggest action. the Capital that standout in white with the yellow background that suggest confusion.
Looking the word title connotes somthings comming. It also suggest that its link to a battle or war. it also soung very important this also connotes that somthing has to be done before the due date. And finally looking at the Film title it changes everything i said i began to denote it. the genre of the film is comidy this suggest that it not very important or serious however the Capital letter make you thing that it is.

From analysing filf title I know have more knowledge of the important of images and word. What I learnt from this can be apply when creating our film poster in my group.

What is more important images or words?
