Poster Analysis: Life Of Pi

- Pi's stance is strong, masculine, confident and he stands higher in the frame than the tiger, this suggest he is the main protagonist in the film and therefore he will have the survival plan, evident from his confident stance. 

- The close up of the life boat surrounded by all of the ocean water shows it is a movie about survival and they must survive all of what is behind them (The Ocean) which is emphasised by the large portion of the poster fulfilled by the ocean. 

- The tiger's open jaw connotes he is hungry and scared, therefore the tiger is posed with a big raw to express massive amounts of anger as well as fear.

- Pi is on a higher level than the tiger, showing his authority and ownership over the tiger.

- The orangey light in some clouds suggests hope for survival is a strong possibility.

- The white and orange life boat suggests they're located in a tropical area as white and orange are colours associated with heat and summer. Also it expresses everything is not what it seems as the outside and inside are two different colours.
