Another me poster analysis from katiewinn
Purpose:
The purpose of this poster is to create a dangerous and mysterious feel, as the backgrounded character is difficult to see, making the audience afraid of them, but also intrigued. It also makes the protagonist seem vulnerable and weak, allowing the audience to connect with and feel sympathetic towards her.
Colours:
The colours used are extremely dark and foreboding, emphasising the danger and mystery. Additionally, the darkness connotes fear and therefore appears slightly threatening.
Text colour:
The text is pink which connotes femininity is also commonly associated with love and affection, juxtaposing with the dark, eeriness of the main image. This use of binary opposites creates a sense of confusion, adding to the overall mystery of the poster.
Text font:
The font has very harsh, sharp angles, making it appear threatening to fit in with the house style of the poster. It also looks as if the text is shattered, which replicates the protagonists psychological state.
Tagline:
The tagline "She's watching. She's waiting. She wants your life" is very threatening and intimidating, therefore achieving the purpose of making the audience afraid. The short, simple sentences, along with the use of anaphora create a quick natural speaking pace, creating a climax and therefore leaving suspense.
Layout:
The layout is very stripped back and simplistic which allows the audience's main focus to be the image, and therefore allows them to take it in and process all the information on it quickly.
Target Audience:
Due to the female protagonist and feminine colour of the text, this poster is most likely aimed to a predominantly female demographic, however, it could also appeal to males as well. The audience are probably teens/young adults, as the protagonist seems fairly young.
