skins

In this picture we see a boy that is laying in a bath full of water and is trying to commit suicide. His facial expression is blank and his eyes are open which suggest that he may be dying or dead. This poster shows that the boy had alot of problems and has decided that enough is enough.In this poster we can see that it is a normal bathroom but is extremely dirty and can tell from this that no one cares about how destroyed or broken the bathroom, this may be the case for the boy in the bath. The predominant colours in the poster are dark colours such as dark green and grey.These colours are normally seen in things such as the sewers so the colours make the image even more grim.A high angle shot has been used for this image to show the most important part which is from shoulders up. It shows the audience the lifeless body of this boy. Also a slightly tilted shot has been used to show what state the walls and part of the sink is in.

Adults will probably find this image more offensive because they wouldn't think that their children would go to these extremes therefor they will find it harder to except this poster. This poster also recieved complaints but seemed to be misjudged so it wasn't banned
