Film Poster Portrayal.

I want to base my film poster on the ‘DARK KNIGHT’ I like the vibe it gives it off its dark and mysterious which basically describes Batman. I like the setting of the poster with the dark clouds and fire the colours fits very well with the image, this poster is successful with its target

audience as it attracts the audiences eye and makes me want to watch the film because I would want to know what is happening with the image on the poster, I want my film poster to give off that same

effect.

The orange connotes fire this is linked with danger, and its formed in the Bat man logo this shows that he is dangerous and no evil must get in his way.

Black is used to give the impression of mystery and curiosity, its also dark which best describes batman and he is best in the night . Where he is hidden and black helps show that.

The navy blue colour is supposed to give off this midnight theme effect, it goes with the thunderstorm image helps make the city look under threat and needs to be saved.

The white is used to stand out against the dark background so they can see the important text on the poster e.g. the release of the film.
