semiotics analysing a film poster


Image result for finding nemo  this film poster if from the movie FINDING DORY
in this poster you can see the following things that tell you about the film:
the film is biased in the ocean, it is set in the ocean because nemo is a fish and just from the title you can see that nemo (the fish) is lost the movie writer may have chosen the ocean because it covers over 71% of the earths surface so you could easily get lost. another place that the film is set is Sydney you can see this from the Sydney opera house in the background so it shows that either that's where they live or that is where nemo ends up as he is lost. nemo is not in the picture as his father and dory (the clown fish and the blue fish) are in the centre so it shows that they are looking of nemo and have met some guests along the way. from the poster you can see all of the different animals that live in the ocean, and all the animals he has met along the way. the film looks friendly yet seems a bit dark and dangerous form the dark waters at the bottom of the poster with lots of dangerous animals such as jelly fish and eals, but also behind dory and marlin are bigger animals such as sharks and a whale so the bigger fish being behind marlin and dory shows that danger is right around the corner and that there are going to be some unexpected surprises along the journey of the film. the title of the film and the fonts used shows a lot of things about the film such as, under the word Nemo there is a line and that could represent a wave as the film is set in the ocean and in the O there is a picture of a fish and that fish is Nemo and this is affective because it shows that Nemo is still lost and he wont stop swimming until he finds home. the characters in the film are all different from scary to nice and you can see that from the facial expressions on the faces, as the page goes up it gets lighter and the animals get nicer and this is to show that the journey may get better.
