The first poster I've chosen to analyze is Underworld, as the genre relates to what I want to do. A close-up shot shows the protagonist as we can get a sense of feel she is the main character due to extreme focus on her. The genre can be perceived through the colours and brightness, as they're dull and boring - only feature around the black and white colour spectrum. Mis-en-scene also represents the genre of the movie as she's holding weapons, implying action etc - and the facial expression of nothing 'happy' and 'over-cheery', just serious. We can gather a sense of narrative through the fact that the title imply's something dark and noting realistic or human-like and due to the weapons you can tel she's going to be the hero of the story who battles her way through whatever the 'Underworld' is. The audience is hard to tell but through mis-en-scene and genre plus the protagonist being female, you could say the age range would appeal to 15-25's, maybe further up depending on what's suited to individuals like, but this would be the ideal age range. Identification of this being a poster is spotted through crew information using steel tongues and logos.
Second poster analysis is on Tomb Raider, a move that's action pact and the hero is the female protagonist as shown through the medium-long shot. The mis-en-scene of weaponry and the clothing she's wearing that's "tight fitting" suggests this movie is going to appear to the audience of 15-25 year olds, like the movie above, as most people this age are into action movies that look attracting. The protagonists facial expression also shows the genre, the "fierce" look and nothing "happy" expresses fighting will be shown most likely. The narrative can be picked up through 'Tomb Raider', especially as raider is emphasized through the font, implying she's the person who's going to raid these tombs - not in an elegant way, in a "bad-ass" way and the background picture may be the significant tomb.
