Analysis of 'Rubber' Poster


The above poster is for the dark comedy film 'Rubber' about an inanimate tyre which gains the ability to move and kill all living creatures. This is similar in genre and somewhat in storyline to the film that I am making.

The poster above is an animation of the inanimate object that the film is based around, with an evil eye in the centre to personify the tyre simply but effectively. I could use something similar to this for my poster, just having the skateboard on its own in the centre of the shot with something significant to personify it, although I most probably won't animate the poster, it is more likely that I will use a shot from on set.

This poster also has a comical tagline with a pun to let the audience know that it is a comedy, other than the tagline you would not be able to tell the film is a comedy from looking at the poster which is common in most dark comedy posters, I don't want to give away the genre too much in the poster as I want the film to remain mysterious and ambiguous.
