We made the movie poster for our documentary because we have a big project in our language A (English class), our big project is making documentary about recycling. The reasons to make movie poster in ESL class is for making people touch from the documentary more and felt something when they saw the words in our movie poster. We use emotive language to make people touch so the teachers in ESL teach us new words of emotive language.
When I'm finding the common creative pictures from Flickr, it looks very easy to me at first. It starting to get bored and lazy to search pictures from flickr and need to be cc (common creative). To find cc pictures you need to go advance search but cc pictures has lesser good pictures than the copyrights. So finally I took a picture at my school myself that connected to my topic and the result is good. I chose that pictures because it’s the lightings and the colors are great and the color is fit in with the fonts that I post in my movie poster. The easiest part that I do this movie poster is when I take a picture in my school because if I see something great and its connected to my topic, I will photo it and ill choose it in my laptop.
We uploaded the picture to Big Huge Labs and edited on there and made a movie poster, we made our own title, we Change colors and the font. My title is “Trash away” because I wanted to make people understand to make the trash in the world to be away/disappeared. It pretty difficult to choose the title on my head because if the title is not interesting, it will be very boring to see for people. After we finish edited in Big Huge Labs, we printed and gave to our ESL teacher. But we are gonna use the movie poster for our introduction when we present our documentary to our class.
We put tagline on our movie poster to so people will felt touch by the tagline on our movie poster. Every movie has a poster and they need a tagline to make people interested and felt touch. Its not really hard to choose tagline for my movie poster because I learnt about emotive language and I can easily use emotive language in my tagline. My tagline are “Wake up now or its to late” because I want to make people realize and act to go green. My other tagline is “its just so easy” because I wanted to tell people that going green is so easy.
I like this unit because its interesting and I learnt so much stuff like emotive language. I can use emotive language for my vocabulary, and its pretty fun to make the movie poster because after we did it, the result is great and fun to see.
