1. COLOURSCHEMEFrom first glance, thisposter looks like a
posterfor a horror film straightaway. This is partly becauseof the
dark colours that havebeen used through the choiceof image. The
dark coloursare a typical conventionassociated with horror andwith
anything scary.The use of blue connotes coldness, and the black and
greysadd a certain mystery to the image and poster overall.
Thebright red nose, lips and cuts on the face bring theconnotation
of blood and violence, associated with the genreof horror. The
yellow of the text Stitches however,suggests a more light hearted
side to the film, which makessense as the film is classed as a
comedy/horror. The posteris therefore hinting at this through its
colour choices.
