How have Propp's spheres of action been used to represent the characters in The Lego Movie poster campaign?

Analyse how the Lego Movie posters use stereotypes to create representations that are easily understood


The Lego Movies posters contain the movies main characters which each have a stereotype, Emmet is portrayed as a normal man through his high-vis work uniform, this would attract the parents in a family and also a fraction of young cinema goers who may have a job that relates to Emmet. He has a terrified facial expression to add to the normality of his character, he isn't used to the action that the 'master builders' bring him into. Wyldstyles poster shows her with a calm and collected look on her face, she has a rebellious look to her and looks like a stereotypical 'gothic' girl. This is easily understood due to her alternative costume and the streaks in her hair.
