The conventions that I have found in the Hot Fuzz, which falls into the comedy and action genre are reference of other films. Fans of Pegg's and Frost's previous work will want to watch this film if they have enjoyed their older work. There is a clear image of the main protagonists with iconography related such as the guns and the fireball and sparks in the background to the action genre. The tag line refers to other classic action films such as Bad Boys and Die Hard which tells the audience this will be an action film with some mention of those films. The title of the film is in bold and all in capitals with a chrome look to it. The title is also the largest text on the poster. There are the actors names below the title, also in capitals but much smaller. Beneath the actors names there is all of the billing including the production companies and distribution companies. The billing also includes other actors in the film and people who have helped. There is an R certificate with an explanation as to why it is that so the audience instantly knows that there will be a lot of action in the film. There is the sound logo, the production companies logos and the website for the film for fans to find out more information to the film.
