Poster Analysis

I looked at this movie poster for ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ because it has a fantasy feel to it. Our film now has aspects of Rapunzel, a fairytale, so our film poster could suggest this somehow. I like the blue colours because it looks creepy and sinister. I like the slight mist because it adds to the atmosphere.
The text in which the title is written is effective because it looks enchanted and like it could be in a fairytale book.
The focal point is the title, which is framed by the arch and the light behind it which grabs the viewer’s attention.
The poster looks interesting because the person is so small and everything around her is really big in comparison which gives the person a sense of inferiority.






I looked at this poster as an idea for our poster because it is also a film based on a fairytale.
I think the colours used are effective because it looks magical and dark with the use of blue. I like the mist because this adds to the fairytale atmosphere.
This has a romantic feel to it as well, with the two characters in the middle. The swords, lightning and boat suggests that this will be an adventure film.
The text used to write the title is appropriate because it looks enchanted and eyecatching.
The focal point is the two characters in the middle. They are looking at the camera so your eyes are drawn to them. There is also a kind of spotlight behind them to really accentuate them. The fact that they are the main focal point suggests that a big part of the movie is going to revolve around these two characters.
