Poster.

We have taken inspiration from other Rom/Com posters. Such as 'There's something about Mary' and also 'Love actually'. From these it was possible to deduce the themes that regularly occur in Rom/Com posters.

This poster contains images of several characters, in a present. It is therefor not typical of a Rom/Com poster as it is also seeking to show other themes within the film, and perhaps to appeal to the 'seasonal' audience rather than just those interested in romantic comedies. It also contains credits and also the names of actors along the top. giving the audience as much information about the film as possible.

This poster is more more simplistic, it is very well suited to a romantic comedy as it shows a 'giggly' looking Cameron Diaz (romance) and also a dog in a full-body cast (comedy). The simplicity is also genre reflective in the way that the films should be easy to digest, therefor making it an easy and thought free process for the viewer.
