LIGHTS , CAMERA, POSTERS!

DIGITAL MEDIA

Immerse yourself in a world of imagination where every graphic and text tells a story. As a designer with expertise in creating movie posters, I bring to life the essence of fictional films that stir the soul and ignite the imagination. Each poster is crafted with meticulous attention to detail and a flair for creativity that not only captivates but also deeply resonates with viewers, inviting them to experience the magic of storytelling.

For this project, I used mostly reused images from previous assignments. Additionally, I experimented with scanning printed media such as magazines and combined them with my collection of photographs. To ensure accuracy, I researched the correct fonts commonly used in movie posters for the billing blocks. The primary focus of this project was on typography, positioning, and composition.

CHALLENGES

  • Narrowing down a unifying theme and setting a consistent set of design rules to guide the overall body of work was crucial for visual cohesion.

  • Selecting the right combination of visuals, typefaces, and stylistic elements to match each chosen film genre required thoughtful experimentation and genre-specific research.

  • Figuring out how to best present the posters, including whether to use mockups for a more engaging and imaginative display, added an extra layer of creative decision-making.

GOALS & METRICS

  • Each poster aimed to capture attention and spark curiosity, with success measured by how effectively the design drew viewers in or made them wonder about the story behind it.

  • A key goal was ensuring that the visual style, typography, and imagery clearly reflected the typical traits of the intended movie genre, serving as a metric for authenticity and genre recognition.

  • The project was designed to be open-ended, with the flexibility to grow by adding new fictional movie posters as new concepts arise, measuring success by the ease of expansion and creative continuity.
