DVD Cover Conventions and Layout Plans

Conventions of a DVD cover;

·      Film Title – the name of the film which in my case would be ‘Plan C’

·      Actors that are shown in the film this tends to be at the top of the page

·      Classification  – what age are able to see the film

·      Ratings from other companies

·      Running time

·      Plot synopsis, what actually happens in the film

·      Tagline of the film

·      Images that are on the back page to show scenes in the film

·      Front cover image (normally of the main characters)

·      Release date

·      Certification box, full with all the information on who was apart of the film making
