Denotation: Behind the two characters there is a sunset (yellow and orange). Both characters are wearing green indicating posible deep secrets /close bond/linked as one.




Connotation: The setting of the sun is always a winner, it's very popular in romantic scenes such as this(Fiona and Shrek coming close to contact). Using the sunset scene creates a warm cosy evenning look,again adding a touch of romance.Fiona wears a green dress indicating that shes more like shrek but obviesly if you have watched the film you'll find that she is an ogre.


Convention: Shrek is a typical ogre, dirty, smelly, ugly,big and scary, but in Fiona's case you wouldn't suspect any hidden secrets about her (shes an ogre). The audience would be very steriotypical about that, saying that "How comes shes not ugly shes not smelly or dirty, she cant be an ogre".
