Finished review
This is my review finished , i created this on illustrator. I used images that are from the film, i showed Lily with two different boys as I wanted the audience to be questioning which one she will be with. I have had the the colour theme as black and white as it stands out a lot. This took a long time for me to create and get it the way I wanted.

Film review of Bride Wars
"Is there anything better than Vera Wang?" they squeal, although this question is meant rhetorically. Product placements taken care of, director Gary Winick sends the twosome scuttling from boutique to hotel while the jaunty soundtrack reminds us that this is intended as a light, frothy comedy as opposed to, say, the satanic black mass we might otherwise take it for.
Our deepest condolences to Hudson as the ironically named "Liv". Her dead eyes and rouged cheeks suggest she's bypassed the wedding and gone straight to the funeral.

Review of Twilight breaking Dawn
The suits behind the flamboyantly successful Twilight movie franchise — worth £1.2 billion and counting — have followed Harry Potter’s lead by splitting the final novel into two.
But whereas the Potter series gained from that decision, the Twilight Saga loses almost all its impetus.
In the Potter stories, extra screen time allowed the leading characters to deepen; the reverse is true here.
This film, a certain box-office hit thanks to the saga’s fanatical following, covers the first half of Meyer’s fourth book.
It starts with the lavish wedding of hot yet cool vampire Edward (Robert Pattinson), aged 108, to feisty yet droopy 18-year-old Bella (Kristen Stewart).
The nuptials are so kitsch they could have been designed by Russell Grant, and take a seemingly endless half-hour.
Anyone not obsessed with hair, make-up and lingerie may find it a near-death experience.
The inaction moves on to a turgid honeymoon on an island near Rio.
There’s lovemaking so passionless it barely warrants a 12A certificate, accompanied by the world’s weediest pop music.
From there it’s on to the speediest pregnancy in history, and an alarmingly gruesome childbirth.
The film-makers’ coyness about sex is strangely at odds with the grisliness of the Caesarean section, which might well put an impressionable 11-year-old girl off ever giving birth.
The only action comes in the form of a desultory battle towards the end, badly choreographed and featuring unpersuasive computer animation.
During this, the third lead, werewolf Jacob (Taylor Lautner), has to choose between his own kind and continuing to stalk his emo ex-girlfriend. Tough call.
Teenage girls will probably be less interested in the story than in the earliest point where Mr Lautner rips off his shirt: these film-makers know their audience, and it’s within seconds of the opening.
The movie seems deeply confused as to how vampires procreate.
Now it is the normal human way, whereas earlier in the series vampires continued their line by biting humans.
The writers seem to be changing the rules as they go along.
Poor old Edward is clearly as much in the dark as the audience.
At one point, he goes on a search engine to look up ‘demon children’.
The mystery is why he didn’t go to it a bit earlier and look up ‘birth control’.
Skip the next two paragraphs if you don’t want to read a spoiler, but the climax depends on the notion that a grown-up werewolf can ‘imprint’ upon a baby at birth and make that offspring forever tied sexually to him.
Yes, a werewolf can fall in love with a baby, and vice versa!
The idea is deeply creepy, bordering on paedophile, and completely at odds with the surely much healthier notion that an adult has the right to fall in love with anyone he or she chooses. Maybe even a non-werewolf.
Director Bill Condon has made classy films in the past, notably Gods And Monsters and Kinsey, but he has never shown much sense of humour or feeling for pace or action.
He is ideally unsuited to this material.
His attitude towards the Twilight Saga is reverential. There is none of the intentional comedy that enlivened the first Twilight movie.
The only laughs in this are from the po-faced dialogue, potty plotting and wooden performances.

First idea for poster
This is the first poster which I created for my film. I didnt choose this to be my final poster as it doesn't follow all of the codes and conventions for a poster. It doesn't follow them as I have used a montage of images and posters normally concentrate on one narrative image.

Progression of my film poster
I changed how I said I was going to create my poster, as i struggled with the other way and also think that this way will attract the audience a lot more.

Animation
Animation is going to play a big part in my film. I think that animation will work well as it will bring the comedy into the film as the animation is going to be showing Lilys (main character) thoughts, feelings and embarrasing things she has done in her life. Here is a image of our animation Lily.
Target Audience for my film
These are the target audience for my film, teenage girls. The film I am creating is something that teenage girls enjoy I know this from the questionairre that I handed out.

Inspirtation for poster
This film poster is the one that has inspired me the most. I like hoow there is images of the different couples in scenes from the film. This allows the audience to think, they instantly start thinking of what might and what moght not be happening in the film. I want to make my film poster similar to this as I think that it works well.
Photos of the actors that are in my film
These are the images of the actors that are in my film David Wilson, April Leggit and Adam Pritchard.
