Film posters are not only seen as advertisment for a film , but also a visual representation of the film itself. A poster shows the mood,genre,setting etc all through the layout and presentation.
Batman is not only a film that i enjoyed watching but also used it artistic posters to help audience have visualised image of film before watching it. The posters all do not all have a specific colour used although the background images, are made to to look dark and mysterious which straight away lets you know the genre of the film as maybe being action or thriller. Symbols which are used in 2 of the posters is the big,tall lit up buildings in the background , these show that the film could be set in well built up city or town , somewhere that is wealthy and populated or is not remote and far out.This image also can show the link between the film being centred around the town as well , in both posters you can see both characters either walking away or running towards the city which can show that the main focus is on the town. In both posters the figures are almost shown photgraphically opposite to one another, in the first poster the main figure is centered in the middle of the frame , his mise en scene is bright coloured clothing e.g purple jacket and green hair and he carries a gun in his hand , this all represents this character as a wild different spotanteous character through his clothing , also shows that he is violent and is one of the main characters. The fact that he is in the centre of the fame shows his imporatnce and his isolation from the city.In the second poster the main figure is all blacked out in a Cape and mask , this represents is trying to hide his identity and is wearing typical costume that a hero might wear.Although the fact that is all blacked out , is not typical image of hero and maybe shows his personality as having a darker side.
