Anyone that is interested in dramas, mysteries or thrillers, that could reach out to a wide range of people from Teenagers to adults. 

  • What were the key signifiers?:
Looks like a dark film from the poster. Faces in the doorknob give off a thriller/mystery feel to the film. The subtitle 'the truth cant stay inside forever' tells the audience that there's something to be solved.



Friends With Benefits:

Romcom (romantic comedy)

  • Target Audience:
Anyone who likes this sort of genre, mostly young adults. 

  • What were the key signifiers?:
The actors in the film are young, happy and attractive. The poster is also very bright with bright colours, this shows how the film is going to be funny and cheerful.
