Predator DVD Cover 1987

Predator DVD Cover 1987

The Colours in the on the DVD cover are red, green, yellow, orange and purple which most of them are warm colours so that is looks like we can see this in thermal vision were yellow is really hot and purple is cold. The green would imply this movie will be set in a dense forest or jungle.

When I look at this the first thing I see would be Arnold Schwarzenegger because with all the colours that surrounds him and with the white contrast aurora around him that makes him stand out. With his face covered in camouflage paint, his military vest and his assault rifle with grenade launcher attachment would imply that is going to an action movie so that it will be a violent movie with lots of people dying, lots of blood and explosions.

The second thing I noticed are his huge biceps (just kidding). The actually second thing I noticed would be between the name Schwarzenegger and the title PREDATOR.

The actor’s name Schwarzenegger is smaller than the title but it has the white contrast which helps the name to stand out more than the title.

For the title “PREDATOR” it stands a little less than the actor’s name because it has a blended black contrast that makes it stand out less. The red makes it a warm colour because it well imply that the movie will have danger, blood, violence action etc.

When I look at the title I think this isn’t just an action movie but also a thriller with a game of cat and mouse with Arnold Schwarzenegger but who is the assailant or what is the assailant?

This DVD cover uses mostly raster images because they Photoshop the image of Arnold with the thermal vision background and you can see bits of pixels in the background.
