I have chosen to analyse this poster for typical conventions seen on a horror film poster.
As you can the genre is the same as my film teaser trailer idea - horror, and there is the similar storyline of possession.
The image is of a cross - mise-en-scene - immediately suggests that a demonic storyline will be involved in this film as well as the expression on the face in the middle. Which is a close up - cinematography - of the main character's face (Anthony Hopkins) which shows his features a bit unnaturally.
Like the drafts I have done for my poster this one also has a title, a tag line, the cast and crew information, and the logos of studio and distribution companies.
However, unlike mine this poster also has additional information such as the release date, and it also says who the main character is, the star Anthony Hopkins, it also entices the audience to go and see it by putting 'Academy Award Winner' implying that this star is someone well known and also to show the audience that he has done this particular genre of film before.
