Analysing Film Posters - 'Nosferatu'

The second film poster I am going to analyse is for the horror film 'Nosferatu' written and directed by Robert Eggers.



The conventions of posters it contains include:

• tagline (referencing genre and narrative)
• name of the film
• name of the director/writer
• name of key stars
• billing block at the bottom
• production company logos
• release date
• dominant central image of antagonist, that indicates the horror genre
