Planning- Action Thriller



Action Thriller:
An action thriller is another sub-genre of thrillers, in which the work often features a verse against the clock, contains lots of violence and on obvious antagonist. These usually contain large amounts of guns, explosions and large elaborate set pieces for the action to take place. These films often have elements of mystery films and crime films but these elements take a backseat to action. Examples of action thrillers are: James Bond, Transporter etc.

The image on the left is showing a poster of an action thriller film; Transporter 3. The background of the poster is white to make it bright, like explosives; therefore it will make it more eye catching to the audience. The image is showing the main character of the film in a middle of a fight scene holding two guns, this is emphasising the use of guns and violence that action films portray. Moreover there is a lot of shadow across the characters face, giving a sense of mystery to the film. The title of the poster is in bold white font with a black background, making it clear to the audience.  Also there are only three main colours that are used in the poster; black, white and blue this used make it look more classic and simple, like most action films.
