Summer Research Project
The movie 'The Martian' is a SC-FI action and adventure movie based on a person that was left in Mars when him and his crew went to Mars for a mission but his team thought he was dead so they left him in Mars. Later on, Matt Damon sends a video message to his team saying 'he is still alive'. Then his team plan a journey back to the Mars which is 254 million kilometres. His team were very delighted that they found out Matt Damon was still alive. Matt Damon is the actor that is starring in the movie 'The Martian'. This setting of this movie is in the Mars which is in space and is extremely far away.

This movie is produced by Drew Goddard and Andy Weir. This movie is directed by Ridley Scott who directed this movie. The main stars of this movie are Matt Damon, Jessica Chastain and Kristen Wiig. This movie is still not published yet but I predict that this movie is going to be a big hit especially seeing the rating of the which is 8.7 and this really makes me think that when this movie comes out, it will be a big hit. Especially the DVD when it comes out.

The Target audience for this movie is probably going to be from 12-30 because its set in space and lot of people love movies that are set in space. This movie is going to be watched by male more than female because males tend to like SC-FI movie especially if its set in space. The other movies people will want to watch if they watch this is The Gravity and Insterteller.

Language
From this movie poster, I can tell that this movie is SC-FI because the image shows a man in space standing on earth. The title is faded and large and not many movie posters titles are faded. It also shows the producers and directors. Also, shows movie cast. The colour blue behind the man is mostly in SC-FI movies.

Institution
The production company is Falling Sky Entertainment. The distributor is Anchor Bay. They distributed the movie to cinemas and then released it to DVD. On the poster, It shows producers and directors names and it also shows a website. The director is Richard Schenkman. He was the one that directed the movie. The writer of this movie was Jerome Bixby.

Audience
This is a PG certificate so that suggests a wide target audience. This movie would probably be suitable for males instead of females because SC-FI films are mostly watched by males. Males are more likely to buy this movie than females.

Respresentation
There is no representation of females because males are stereotypically judged as a better scientific person. This shows that not many females are in SC-FI films. This shows that females are stereotypically not scientific than males.
