What makes them effective?
They are made to be effective which the style such as the colours, fonts, and images which are placed together creating a visual that audiences are most likely to remember and think that they will go and see the film be advertised.
How have posters developed over time?
Film posters have developed a lot over time especially due to new technology being introduced in the industry. Before the 1990s movie posters were drawn. Now as computers and technology is widely available posters are created on software which they can easily be edited.
Now film posters can also vary in sizes, as main stream films like to attract publicity, promotion and audiences, the posters are distributed in many areas therefore they are created/printed so that the size will not ruin the quality because they can be from sizes like A4 which could be stuck down on a street to the size of large billboards. Even from official websites allow people to download various sizes from small to big as this would depend on the size of their laptop/computer, this is to ensure they have good quality and it fits onto the screen.
