Induction: Movie poster Texual analysis


Denotation- a man standing
Setting- dark low lighting cave, patterns at the bottom suggests old or maybe somewhere unknown. fire skull at the back could tell us that there is death included also the name of the film 'crystal skull'
Costume- safari, explorer, adventerous. he has a whip in his hand, this could be his signature weapon
NVC- he facial expression is serious and the way he is standing makes he seem brave and almost a hero. his fist is clenched, means he means business.
Low lighing besides the fire skull draws the audiences attention because its so bright it also emphasises the name of the film.
the title of the film makes the film less serious as it looks like a comic title this suggests that the film is suitabe for a family and has some sort of comedy to it.
the angle of the camera is lower than him- this tells us that he is the hero, he is looking down at us.
