Poster Analysis 1
A blue color
overlay n the right.
It symbolizes trust, loyalty,
wisdom, confidence,
intelligence, faith, truth, and
heaven.
The brightness of the man
on the right seems to be the
victim or the good guy.
A red overlay
on the left
Red is the color of fire and
blood, so it is associated with
energy, war, danger, strength,
power, determination as well
as passion, desire, and love
In the cover these
characters are presnted in
my opinion quite sinister so
there most likely going to
be the bad guys.
