What does Snape Reaction mean?

Also called Severus Snape · Snape Leaning Back

An ordinary setback deserves an extremely dramatic response. Put the bad news on Snape’s dark cloak and let the backward lean supply the reaction.

Snape leans back against a window, with his mouth open and one hand spread beside him. Paired with a small inconvenience, the pose can read as disbelief, exhaustion, or a complete loss of patience.

A single line works well here. Describe what just happened, then leave the face and hand to show how much it affected you.

Origin

Alan Rickman as Severus Snape.

Alan Rickman plays Severus Snape, the Hogwarts Potions master, in the Harry Potter films. The official Harry Potter site describes Rickman’s performance as combining the character’s dry humor with his more troubled and conflicted sides. [1]

Caption guide

Keep the problem small and the reaction large.

Place one caption across the lower part of the black cloak. White lettering is easy to read there and leaves the raised hand and face unobstructed.

Name a specific setback rather than explaining how upset you are. A missing file, an extra task, or a very long week gives the pose a reason to exist.

The bad news
The small event that prompted the dramatic reaction.
  • Use one short sentence.
  • Let the expression carry the emotion.
  • Keep the eyes and open hand clear.
