A Perfect Murder

  • The main colours featured in this poster are orange and brown. Orange is a colour derived from red and yellow. It reflects anger however because of the blend of yellow, the colour orange does not reflect anger as strongly as red. Orange is also a very energetic colour, and reflects warmth as it has connotations of the sun. Orange is a colour that demands attention, it is mentally stimulating and considered a sociable colour. Brown is a good background colour and it reflects wholesomeness and honesty as it is a natural earthy colour.
  •  The Typography is mainly white, which is a neutral colour therefore making the main attention on the images in the poster rather than the font.
  • The 'M' in murder is red, reflecting danger, which would relate to the word it is part of, as murder is a dangerous act. Red could also reflect passion in this instance as there is a couple in the background of this poster that could reflect the theme of passion.
  • There is some small typography in the top right hand corner of the poster, it may possible be small so the audience has to look closer to read what it says. It is written in a different font to the other fonts on the page, this makes it stand out slightly more but not enough to take the attention away from the main, larger typography in the poster.
  • The male is only just slightly more in the foreground so the audience know he is the main character.
  • The messages in the poster are mainly verbal as the images do not reveal a lot of what the film may be about. It is the small typography that gives a clue to the narrative.
