A movie postcard is simply a smaller version of a movie poster, sort of like the business cards of movies. It contains little, sweet informational snippets about the plot, the characters, and summaries, as well as information on when the movie will be released. Here is a postcard from a competing short film, 14 Minutes, which I will be analysing to learn how to create a compelling cinema postcard and how this will influence my own efforts for my own short films postcard.
