Summary: Pick your favorite movie. Research what type of information and images are typically on a movie poster. Create a new movie poster that would advertise for the movie. The poster should catch peoples interest and make them want to think about watching the movie. Please follow the constraints below.
Constraints:
- Poster should include this information
- Title
- Major actors/actresses
- Tagline - A tagline is a variant of a branding slogan typically used in marketing materials and advertising. The idea behind the concept is to create a memorable phrase that will sum up the tone and premise of a brand or product (like a film), or to reinforce the audience's memory of a product. Some taglines are successful enough to warrant inclusion in popular culture, often becoming snowclones. A snowclone is a type of cliché and phrasal template originally defined as "a multi-use, customizable, instantly recognizable, time-worn, quoted or misquoted phrase or sentence that can be used in an entirely open array of different variants".
- Examples of famous movie/television taglines are:
- Be afraid. Be very afraid. – The Fly In space
- no one can hear you scream. – Alien

- A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... – Star Wars
