Betrayed is a horror movie that includes many of the main conventions to identify it is a horror movie. Firstly the lowkey lighting indicates it will be a gloomy film and danger as the photos are in the shadows. To authenticate it is in the horror genre the faceial expression of the young innocent woman is scared and shocked, this is illustrated with her eyes widened and looking towards the othger photo of the close up of an older man but the opacity of his photo is reduced giving a view as if he isnt really there. This photo links to Claude Levi-Strauss theory of the idea of good vs evil where we see the potential villain in the film next to the protaganist this gives the audience an idea of what the film entails. In our film we have a villain as a monster so we could use this as an idea because the group of us are the innocent protagnists but there is a monster in the woods with us so for out poster we could potentially have the eyes of the monster next to us looking all scared with frightened faces.
