Movie poster Mise-en-scene decription, 1st try
The poster is a concept design/redux recently drawn by Olly Moss for Sam Raimi’s cult horror ‘The Evil Dead’. It depicts the now horror cliche log-cabin-in-a-forest setting on an aged sepia paper, where protagonist Ash is burying a corpse. The image is also in the shape of an undead hand bursting out of the ink smudge-like soil, hinting to the loosely strung together zombies-in-a-cabin plot of the movie, and ‘shot’ on a dramatic angle. The hand design is red in colour, suggesting the evening, and on other levels a bloody hand print. The fingers are solidified by background trees. The contrasting colours are extremely eyecatching, and the choice of colours (black, white, almost sepia) seem to be a nod to classic horror posters from decades before.
Please post second advert analysis Jack. Also you need to post shot stills and annotations and also lighting examples and connotations.
