Textual analysis of the films that Influenced us:Harry potter and the Prisioner of Azkaban By Tom Morgan

The wanted poster from Harry Potter: Prisoner of Azkaban specifically on its own influenced us greatly as it gave us the idea of using it in our film, we will use this idea and put posters all around to create the effective of this man being extremely wanted and dangerous. This idea came to mind as in the prisoner of Azkaban they have these wanted posters all over town to create the effect we are going for. It also gives the idea of reality as it’s like everyone’s after him and he’s known all over.

We are using the idea of the escape prisoner and are using the wanted poster (shown on the left) to show that people are after him and to give the impression that he’s dangerous.The Editing used in which the poster is magic which shows a moving image of Serious Black (the murderer) in prison looking aggressive and dangerous. This makes the poster and the character look mysterious and creates suspense as you feel that Serious Black is a mass murderer and will kill again.

The camera angles used are useful as they do a wide shot where you can see several wanted posters. We will use this in our film as we feel that this shows how wanted he is, which will be effective in our film as we want to show the viewer that our escape prisoner is dangerous he is and how you should avoid him so that’s why there are many wanted posters of him.Also other ideas we gained from the film our the sound used we also feel this is effective, they use an eerie music to create suspense and drama, which influenced are film as we will do something along the same lines within the laws of copyright.
The titles are huge and eye catching they are also in a thunderstorm so it gives the viewer the idea of the gloomy atmosphere.

This is a hyperlink (shown below) that shows the moving wanted poster that influenced us greatly so you will be able to see the gloomy effects and how the movement shows his aggressive behaviour and how he is dangerous and should be avoided.
