Dismissed (dir. Benjamin Arfmann 2017)
The poster is teaser poster as it only has the face of the main character and the name of the movie due to this it's also a character poster. The movie is about a student who is willing to do anything for straight A's.The movie is in the thriller genre due to the fact that the main character is shown to be psychopathic due to his cold blooded killing of his best friend and the killing of his English teachers wife after the English teacher gives him an F. The main character is played by Dylan Sprouse who's face is on the poster, he has an large fan base due to his past movies and TV shows.
The poster does use a bit of foreshadowing due to the fact of how half of his face is darkened and the other is in the light. This is foreshadowing through the fact that at the beginning of the movie he is seen as this perfect student and a good person, however small pieces start showing through the movie that begin to show how he is really a dark person with a twisted mind and no empathy to others.
The writing is eye catching due to the light colour on the dark background and because of how big it is.
The most important colour in the poster is black as it takes up most of the poster this is conventional to the thriller genre. It's used to show how dark the movie actually is, while the viewer of the poster can't tell at the time of looking at the poster once they watch the movie they will see how in many cases the dark colour is used throughout. Also the clean look of the poster is part of the movie it self as its shown multiple times how the main character likes to keep everything neat and organised.
