This image has a denotation of a man standing in front of fire holding a whip. However the connotations of this image shows bravery from the fact he is standing in front of fire, it shows he is fearless and seems adventurous.
The costume he is wearing appears to be quite old fashioned and combat seeming he is again quite adventurous. The prop he has is a whip denoting courageous and daring. It also seems quite historic as most people in this modern time wouldn’t usually carry around a whip. The setting in this poster appears to be in some sort of cave, the skull in the background could imply he is "close to death" from the typical representation of a skull.
The lighting appears to be quite serious, from the fiery reds and oranges, but at the same time, in a strange way it creates a warming atmosphere as the text is the same colour - the anchorage is a sansserrif font which appears to be quite a comic kind which in a sense eases the viewers mind.
The non verbal communication shown in this poster comes across as very stong and stern, you can see this from the direct eye contact which is given and the clenched fist suggesting an action packed film.
