TV series poster

The TV series poster i have chosen is Stephen Kings 1990 miniseries IT with pennywise being played by Tim Curry it have a total run time of 3hours 14mins which is quite short for a series but too long for a film.

Denotations 
The poster is designed in the way so it looks like pennywise is trying to get to the person who is looking at the poster so straight away the person who is looking at it for the first time can tell that it is going to be a horror film instead of a different genre so people know what they are getting themselves into and it is also clear that he will be the main antagonist of the film so instantly people know what the antagonist looks like so they know everyone else are probably going to be be protagonist.

Connotations Also with the poster there are very clear protagonists as well which are obviously the characters under the title of the film which means it is a clear good vs evil scenario which means most of the time the people will prefer the protagonists than the antagonists depending on how they are portrayed. As well as that the main title in the middle is in red and red can be seen as many different things like hate or something more likely for this film which would be blood because of the amount of characters that are killed off in the film. Also under the characters there is a quote that is suppose to one give a brief idea of what the film is about and also try to scare the audience before they even watch the series.
