Symbolic Code Analysis
Setting & Props -
The setting of this picture is in a boxing ring, this is a symbolism of fight and action. There is a railing fence outside of the boxing ring which gives me the impression that the audience are violent and dangorous and they are seperating them from the fighters.
Costume, Hair and Make up -
The person in the middle is wearing a black and white stripy tshirt, this shows us that he is a referee and has authority over the fighters. The people on the outside are wearing shorts and no tshirt which shows us that they are the fighters.
Facial expressions and body language-
Both of the fighters are very tense and have a serious facial expression, the fighter on the left his knees are bent which mean that he is ready to react to the violence he is recieving.
Positioning of the characters -
The referee is in the middle which shows us that he can seperate the fighters if he needed to. The fighter on the right is in the air above the other fighter, this shows us he is of a higher value then the other fighter.
lighting and colour -
The environment that the fighters are in is very Low Key which contrasts with the fighters because they are High Key. The background is Low Key because it shows a very dim and tense atsmophere. The fighters are High Key because all the attention is on them and they need to stand out from the rest.
