The Good Lie
Description
The Good Lie movie poster is very eye-catching. As soon as one sees the poster, the eyes move directly to the woman on the top half portion of the poster. The way the light reflects on her fair completion makes her piercing sky blue eyes and soft features stand out. Another way the woman stands out is by her dark, red hair. Her hair stands out because the color of it is a main contrast to the three main colors used in this poster, which are different shades of golds, browns, and whites. The background behind the woman also peaks the authors interest because of the illustration of a golden city with large skyscrapers’. The bottom of the movie poster has a big contrast from the top half portion of the poster. Although …show more content…

There is also bold text with different information; the title, the main actress, a quote, release date, movie rating, and more. The title, The Good Lie, is most dominant because it is written in a large, written in mainly white, bold, easy to read print. Also, the text that reads “Reese Witherspoon” is dominant. It is also in a large, bold, and easy to read print but in contrast to the title, it is written in brown. To catch the viewer’s eye, the poster also mentions that Reese Witherspoon is an academy award winner. All of the writing considered to be more dominant is also in all capital letters. There is also text written on the poster that is less dominant. For example, there is a quote that states “Miracles are made by people who refuse to stop believing.” This quote is written in brown and is not as dominant as the other words on this poster because of the smaller point font. The only other piece of information that is large enough to be distinguished easily in this poster is the release date, October third. The artist of this poster made all of the information on this poster very visually clear and the information was effective on getting the attention of anyone that sees the poster.

Secondly, a Poster will be created with the main heading of "When your salmon is actually a pig". This would fulfill the use of images one of the rhetorical strategies, where it would be “photographic but something far more persuasive, a transformation of how we see wand what we pay attention too” (Porter, 253) because, as it is being stated, it is much more affected to show an image that shows something rather than using words to send an entire argument or message across to an audience. If this poster this have this image, it would be a black green space with words on it. This wouldn’t be affective in capturing people’s attention, which is something a poster aspires to do.

While watching the film on Fantastic Lies, I discovered that the level of crisis that were being portrayed was level three. I believe this film is an example of level three crises because throughout the film, there were a lot of public embarrassment such as the Duke lacrosse program itself due to the players being accused of sexually assaulting a woman. Once the news got out about what happened at the party, everyone turned against the lacrosse team without knowing the full story of what had happened during the crisis.

The lacrosse players were the popular guys on Duke campus, but once everyone heard what had occurred during spring break everyone turned their backs on them, which lead the players in

For example the words, “More”, “Doctors”, and “Camels” are not only in a large font size and all caps, but the first letter of each word is in red. This draws the reader to those words, allowing the reader to begin to associate doctors with Camels signature cigarettes.
