Cold Souls is a lighter comedy but still has some dark characteristics such as breaking the rule of thirds and making light of dark situations such as mid life crisis. Once again without looking at any of the text it is difficult to tell that this film is going to be a comedy but we can tell from the tagline and review quote that this is a comedy film, this attracts the audience of comedy/dark comedy viewers. The effect that they have chosen to use on the main characters face is interesting showing the man emotionless in quite a frightening way. Also the colours used for the background and the man's clothes are quite dark and low key, giving the poster a dark tone to it again keeping the genre ambiguous similarly to most dark comedy posters. Also the text is quite small in comparison to the amount of space taken up by the main character, there is also a lot of white space around his face(s), showing that the film all revolves around him etc. This is something that could be used in my film poster as the whole film is based around the skateboard.
