Analysis of Law Abiding Citizen Poster

In this poster for Law Abiding Citizen, we see the faces of two protagonist for this film. On the poster, composed in the top left area are the names of the characters, this indicates that these are two well known actors and it is a marketing asset for this film. Jame Fox, the character at the top, has a white background behind it which means he probably has a good or clear roll in the film. Gerard Butler however is in the half of the poster in which red is used as the background. this indicates he has a more dangerous and revengeful. The title is in a white font colour which indicates to the audience that there is a neutral effect caused by these two characters. There is also a phrase which creates suspense and tension for the audience as it states, 'Justice at any cost'. This is a rhetorical question as the audience start thinking about what cost are these characters having to pay to achieve justice.The final part of the poster is conventional as it shows states the cast that are involved in this production and the release date for cinema viewing.

This relates to our own production as we have to characters that act in opposite ways, (good and bad), so we can use this colour system for our own backgrounds.
