Poster Analysis 2

In this poster for the film 'Creep' they have used the principle of thirds along with hotspots to put the train in the full view of the audience. This also emphaisies the hand pressed up against the train window, along with traces of blood around the hand. This has the impact of giving the audience an insight into what has/is going to happen inside the train. It presents the audience with a sinister feelng assoicated with the train. The hand is also contrasted with a bright white colour from the window which brings it further into attention. Futhermore it also uses the same convention my previous poster analysis used which is not giving the audience the 'full stroy'; for example only showing the hand gives an ambigous image of what is in the train, giving it a scarier image. The writing at the top of the page is in red, this colour usually denotes love and passion, but in this sense along with the fuzzy font used with it it gives off a scary feeling. The film title (Creep) is also written in bold white which contrasts against the train, this puts it more into the viewers eye; there is also a 'splattering' feel to the font of the title, this is unconventional and it could also connote blood being 'splattered', giving the viewer a better sense as to what the film is going to be about. Route of the eye is also used with the first 'route' going along the top of the page capturing the reccomendations from a newspaper, the next 'route' then goes down the page diagonally capturing the sinister hand pressed up against the train, this emphasises its scaryess. The last 'route' goes across the bottom of the page, this emphasises the title of the film and also the tag line, 'Your Journey Terminates Here'. This tag line is used to give the audience an idea of what is going to happen on the train, and possibly the thinking that there will be casualties on the train.
