Ill manors: Official website



  1. How does the Ill Manors official website promote the film? The website gives a visual representation of what the film is all about, as the whole website has this wrecked look, and is dark which portrays what the characters are like, this is what would attract the audience, the website follows through this look wherever you click, so the atmosphere is the same. They promote the film by having the trailer to view, stills, videos and reactions and reviews of what viewers think of the movie.
  2. What examples can you find of the Ill Manors brand on the website homepage? The title 'ill manors' on the website is the same as it is shown in the film, posters etc. This is very large on the top left of the screen and this is how the brand is shown on the website. 
  3. What links does the website offer? The website offers links to view the trailer, which is essential as audience would want to view this. They also have links to  the synopsis which explains the background behind the storyline. They also have a link to the director 'Ben drew' which has some background information about him and how he feels about his first directed movie. There are also stills of the film and characters. There is a link to the Album which has the full soundtrack of the movie. There is also a link to videos showing behind the scenes footage so the audience gets an insight to the background. There is a 'buy now' link where you can purchase the dvd or blueray. The final link is to the reactions and reviews of the film.
  4. What examples of synergy can you find between the website homepage and the print/broadcast platforms? The font of the title is the same on the website and posters/DVD packaging, a bold and basic font to uplift the fact the film is low-budget and urban, the title is in white to connote an element of seriousness which reflects the depth of the problems the actors have to face in the film. In addition, the same actors are used especially Riz Ahmed who heavily devises the plot and to make the audience aware and to remind them that he is the prominent figure in the film.
  5. List the links to social media on the website homepage. Why are these important?  https://www.facebook.com/ILLMANORS / https://twitter.com/illmanors
