Analysis of Film Advertisement

Today i picked up a Newspaper and as i read it, i noticed various Film Advertisements. This one particular stood out for me as its very eye grabbing. Once i finished reading the paper i figured that i might as well post a blog about it! :)


The main colour of this advertisement is a deep red. This connotes both Danger and Love. As a viewer i straight away assume that the Genre of this film is a Horror/Romance. As the man in this film is wearing a Red Hoody, i assume that he may be a danger to the girl behind him in the white top. By having the contrast of the two characters in different clothing shows that the girl is innocent whereas the man is dangerous. The Proxemics of the both characters make me believe that the Genre has an element of Romantic in it as they are close and they are of different sexes. The fact that the man is slouching conveys that he may be unaware that he is a danger to the girl with her back straight looking over her shoulder behind the man. The man looks very intriguing as he has a grey complexion which shows that he may be suffering from an illness or have some type of disease or be some type of Supernatural Being. This creates to horror side to the Genre as he looks quite scary and menacing.
