Adulthood Analysis
Essay for both Covers..
The film Adulthood is an continuation of Kidulthood. Both posters are similar in many ways, this is because they are both taken outdoors. Both posters show the sky and the atmosphere. In the poster of Kidulthood there is a very dull effect in the sky. The weather seems to be very cloudy and as if there has been lightning or rain.
The moods of the characters in the poster of Kidulthood look very upset and angry. it looks like there is too much seriousness on the youngsters faces, where at this age they should be happy and having fun with each other. The background and facial expressions looks like they are going through bad times. the environment they are in is the street (outdoors), this shows that they are in a uncomfortable place. It looks like they are going through a struggle.
The clothing of the characters is very typical to what the youth in London wear of today. Hoodies, Caps etc. The characters could be strereo typed in the way that they could be part of a gang.
The person in the yellow and black jacket is on a lower level and he is sitting on the floor. The way in which he is sitting looks like he has given up and he doesn't want to try to make things better.
The person on the right side of the poster with the bat shows that he is resorting to violence. He looks like he is angry and is on a mission. The baseball bat doesn't look like he is using it for sporty purposes.
The poster does not show that their is a main character. The 5 stars at the top of the film poster is a self rating which they have given to themselves. this shows that the producers have put their all into their film to make it the best it can be.
The film Adulthood's poster is slightly different to the Kidulthood poster. This image on the poster is also set outdoors. The sky is very orangy, it shows that the sun is rising, this could also connote that it is the return of the Kids but as Adults. The sky shows a much more positive image to the film and shows that they are back to solve all the problems that they has in Kidulthood.
The moods and facial expressions of the characters are also still serious, there is not one smile shown at all on anyones face. this could show that they are still going through a struggle and a problem and do not want to be happy until it is sorted.
As they are still on the streets this shows us that this could be the main settings of the film. the film could be a film which is set outside mainly.

The clothing is very slightly different to the clothing in the Kidulthood poster. The clothing still shows in the Adulthood poster that they are youngsters but may have a differnt attitude and mentallity.
In the poster of Kidulthood there is a boy on the floor with yellow and black on. He is dressed in teenage sportswear. The same person in the poster of Adulthood is wearing smart clothing and is not too close to the crowd, this could mean he has changed and is now an adult. He is standing outside the crowd and looks different.
In the poster of Kidulthood the person (SAM) in the right side of the poster of the bat looks angry and ready to fight, he is looking the same and also angry in the poster of Adulthood. He is standing in the centre of the Poster, this could be that the storyline is about him in this film.
