Static Image Commentary

My static image portrays the idea that Martha is locked in the attic and she is calling for help because her dad has locked her in there as disobeyed the rules. They are frightened that she going to tell the family secret.  

The visual elements include a dominant image of old stairs leading into a dark room. This represents the stairs leading up to the attic to Martha’s room. I made it three dimensional so it’s eye-catching.  The stairway is all dark and gloomy which represents Martha ’s boring life. She is not allowed clothes from the shops and her mum makes them. She isn’t allowed friends over.

I have used the colors black with a little white The black represents Martha being rebellious. It also shows aggression as her dad hits her and locked her in her room. It also represents fear, as it is fear of her father and fear that her parents might see the sign and she will never get free from them. as they represent a dark room (attic). The small bits of white represent that there is a little bit of hope as Scott may find her sister and rescue Martha.

The quotation  I have chosen is ‘I’m locked in the attic, help, tell the police. It is relevant to my image because Martha was locked in her room and needed help. The quotation is in green as the color green has healing power and growth as when Martha is rescued she will be free and be able to heal all her past hurts and have new growth.
