2. The colouring of this movie
poster is dark giving off
mysterious connotations.
These dark colours can
represent what genre the
movie is.
The red title for the
movie gives impressions
of danger. The font also
giving out threatening
vibes which matches
the feel the poster is
giving.
The images used within the
poster create an alarming feeling as
the character pictured is fading into the
darkness the only light source being a
match. The other image is of a desolate
island which may have been used to
create a feeling of isolation and relate
to what the movie is about.
The text at the bottom of the
posters which announces the
directors and actors starring in the
film is done very small. This may
have been done to give more
attention and emotion to the
overall poster. The main actors
name is the only name boldly
placed on the poster for the naked
eye to see. This is to flaunt the
main celebrity and excite those
who have enjoyed previous films
by the actor.
3. The image chosen for the poster
shows the main character in a
natural pose and covered in
makeup. This may have been
done to express the overall
emotions of the character, as she
looks to be in some sort of role
but her face shows no sign of
emotion. This could reflect the
idea of what viewers may expect
from the movie.
The colours of the image
range from white to black.
This contrast between light
and darkness giving ideas
that there will be two sides
to the main character and
overall feeling of the movie.
The only other colour is her
deep red lipstick a
connotation given to the
colour is danger.
The poster also reflects the
two nominations the film
has got. This may have
been put there to show
how the film has been
critically acclaimed and this
will attract viewers.
The title of the poster has
been placed at the bottom
of the poster and has been
printed quite small. This
again may have been done
to blend in with the feel of
the poster. The colour of
the title is black and it fits
in with the rest of the
colour scheme.
4. The colours of the poster is
an electric blue which gives
off a sci-fi / futuristic feel.
However the blue could
symbolise feelings of
coldness and melancholy.
The only other colour is
given through the eyes of
the male character. The
orange/red colour seen
could connote danger or a
threatening feeling.
The chosen image for the poster has
included the male and female
characters from the movie. They
may have been chosen to show the
two main protagonists from the
movie but to also reveal the
relationship the two will have within
the movie as they are pictured to be
relatively close to each other.
The title of the film has been placed
directly in the centre of the poster
overlapping the picture of the
characters. The colouring of the font is
red which give an idea to the audience
that the film will include some sort of
danger which fits into the genre of the
film and passion which will be
represented by the two characters.
The actors name appear at
the top of the poster, to
show the viewers who will
star in the movie and to
invite fans of the actors to
watch the movie.
