Movie Posters

In the movie poster above, the element that is mainly portrayed throughout the entire picture is texture. This poster is specifically designed in order to attract the audience of the materials that are used that fill in the main character's face of the movie. The combination of bullets surrounding the character's appearance provides consistency of the surface as it substitutes all the of the characteristics of a human being. The bullets are color coordinated in order to complete the character's hair, face, neck, and suit. The bullets also does a fascinating job creating interest because it carries texture that transmits great detail. The character's face is basically manipulated to provide a feeling of a rough, irregular texture, while the background surrounding the image is smooth and even. Furthermore, the surface of the face appears to be shattered, but it is simply an illusion caused by the associations of materials.
In the movie poster above, the basic element that is active within the image is tone. The intensity of darkness communicate danger and troublesome throughout the entire design. If one were a stranger to the Batman trilogy, they can easily observe that this movie involves a grungy atmosphere due to its tone. In the image, you can notice that the darkness builds on the lines of the buildings and the character placed in the center of the poster is toned down and is dressed heavily in dull, lifeless colors. Lastly, the color scheme and cant of the camera create an ominous effect.
In the movie poster above, the basic element that is active is scale. The gnome that is centered in the middle of the poster is humongous relative to the minuscule gnomes surrounding him. Though the main gnome isn't actually that much larger in comparison, it is enlarged in the poster to emphasize the contrast between the red and blue gnomes. Juxtaposition takes place as the main gnome stands side by side with other gnomes.
