  1. WWW - Rajveer, you begin to identify key features and consider how they convey meaning and ideas about the genre and plot.
    EBI - Avoid generic comments particularly about colours - it stands out doesn't really mean anything. Consider why certain colours have been used in terms of connotations and how meaning is conveyed.
    With reference to the paranormal activity poster, you need to consider the strap line in more detail. 'Discover how the activity began' - what does this suggest? How might it link to the image? Consider the fact that it is number 3 in the series so does this maybe suggest that this film is a prequel?
    You need to consider the image in much more detail - the two children in bed - what does this suggest and what effect does this create? Consider the fact that the camera is in a child's bedroom - this is clearly strange in itself.
    Consider the font in more detail - it looks like official typewriter font - what is the effect of this and what might it reveal about the plot?
    With reference to the Insidious poster - you state that the image of the boy suggests he is possessed but how?
    Consider the pull quote at the top in more detail - what is being suggested about what type of film this is going to be by mentioning these other films? Consider the significance of the boy being outside of the house and at the front of the house. Consider the mise en scene in the background too - the murky skies etc.
    You need to examine the title in more detail - what does insidious mean? How does this then link to the image? Why is it in white? Why is the si in red? Why the s and the i? Is this significant?
