Film title fonts research

The cyberbully film cover is quite empty and I would say isolated, the girl sitting in the middle is really effective because it defines the word in big bold letter Cyberbully. The girl sitting in the middle is alone, and seems very scared and has a laptop near her, the imagery of bullying is being communicated to the audience through the person shown in this cover.
"Words can hurt" in black letter which makes you spot it straight away because everything else in the image is in white, perhaps this was done to catch the audience's attention in that particular phrase. The background is very embracing and comforting, the colour blue almost makes it seem like a peaceful atmosphere because blue as a colour has the connotations of being associated with depth and stability, which is the juxtaposition of the context of this film. Blue is also associated with confidence, faith and trust, but the blue background and the faded words also in the background juxtapose because the words say something and the colour blue symbolises something else, it is a really effective way to make the audience think deeper. The faded words in the background, in white and bold seem to be the screen of her laptop, again the colours of the letters juxtapose what is happening in the image, white is associated with light, perfection, safety and cleanliness, which are very positive connotations. The words juxtapose the connotations of the colour white, which makes me question. Again. "Words can hurt." is in black,  which is very unusual as the other fonts are all in white.  Black is associated with death, evil and mystery which are really bad connotations, the various contrasts of connotations and font colours really convey the differences in people, some people are bright (white ) and some people are dark ( Black ) linking to the whole bullying context.
