Movie Poster Design —— The IMAX version of the spring blockbuster Watergate Bridge in Changjin Lake was released. What details are worth paying attention to?

Which movie poster do you like? I have watched many movies recently and have been thinking about how to make an excellent movie poster.

Before watching a movie, it can arouse your strong interest;

After watching the movie, it gives you an "epiphany" feeling about some plots in the movie;

Besides the film, it is an independent aesthetic work.

Before 1980s, movie posters were printed and produced by the mother, especially those hand-painted movie posters added by painting masters, which not only improved the artistic taste of movie posters, but also had certain collection value. Nowadays, the introduction of high technology has brought a revolution to the production of movie posters, which makes the production of movie posters very convenient and easy. Compared with traditional craft posters, it has almost no collection value.

In that era when TV sets were not popular, watching movies was a luxury. In the era when mobile phones can watch movies, watching movies has become a daily necessity. Therefore, movie posters become more popular and commercialized, which weakens the artistry of movie posters.

But there are also a group of designers who describe their love for movies through their own expressions. Their works are changeable in style, and they don't emphasize the star effect, but pay more attention to the expression of the essence of the film. The purpose of these poster works is not how to "sell" the film, but to interpret the film at a deeper level from the audience's point of view, which is more like a review of the film.

Therefore, I selected a series of posters from three aspects to share and appreciate with you:

First, give you an epiphany.

0 1 Titanic

Cameron's classic Titanic was popular all over the world, and I still remember the poster at that time.

When the little plum on the original poster is at its peak, the poster picture on the right can remind you of the classic sentence "youjumpijump".

These excellent movie posters that you have never seen are definitely worth collecting!

The film began in the center of the ocean, ended in the center of the ocean, and was finally sunk into the Atlantic by grandma Ruth. I recommend this product to you, which was designed by LaurentDurieux. The core element of the poster is in the heart of the sea, who is eager for wealth and desire, and adopts the most popular Trajan font in the film circle.

Apart from text messages, when I first saw this poster, it was difficult to connect it with Titanic. When I looked carefully, I found that it was in the heart of the sea hanging on Grandma Ruth's chest, and the shape of the collar skillfully formed the deck of the Titanic.

These excellent movie posters that you have never seen are definitely worth collecting!

02 "Home alone"

Probably my favorite comedy movie so far. 1990 movie, the plot, scene and characters are all good. Different from some comedy movies, its laughter comes from each actor's perfect interpretation of the role, and of course, the clever idea of the screenwriter. After so many years, it seems that even the United States itself has failed to make the same film. The following poster design from AdamSimpson has also been cleverly thought by the designer. "Kid" Kevin didn't appear in the picture, but showed Kevin's wit through the antics of stupid thieves, just as humorous as the movie plot! These excellent movie posters that you have never seen are definitely worth collecting!

Star Wars: The Last Jedi

As the title shows-"The Last Jedi Knight", AndrewKwan's poster design has no suspense. The title is given in the most intuitive way: the tired back slowly disappears against the setting sun, like blood, a legend is over, and two suns are hanging in the air, which is Luke's origin and best destination.

04 Escape from Breaking Bad

The 90th Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, this film is full of careful consideration of horror, racial issues and scientific and technological elements.

Jieshao's design is a common poster design style in 1990s. It removes color and focuses on graphics and layout expression. The picture is fixed in the action of "taking out" the spoon from the head cup, which means intentional replacement, and it also focuses on "GetOut" visually, which is meaningful. Just like this movie, fear will not appear when you think it is coming, but hiding in The Secret Behind is bolder than you think.

The jazz soundtrack in the film and Rhodes' conspiracy theory make this film full of black humor and satire.

05 007: Ghost Party

Whether you watch this movie or not, you must watch the title of "007: Ghost Party". Its expression can be appreciated as an independent film, and some people even give a better evaluation than the film.

The ring in the title is the theme of the film: ghost party. The pattern on the ring is a combination of octopus and ghost. The poster of "007: Ghost Party" is about handsome guys and beautiful women daniel craig and monica bellucci.

From this perspective, Pedro's poster. Maia version, like the title of "007: Ghost Party", is more inclined to use octopus, ghosts and skeletons to express the theme of the film.

The title of 007: Ghost Party

Off-topic: The soundtrack of "007: Ghost Party" is "Writing" sung by British male singer Sam Smith.

Swiss Army Man

Master Xing is right. Playing a dead body is a technical job. Daniel Jacob Radcliffe, a famous Harry Potter actor, plays a very important corpse in The Swiss Army Knife Man. This "corpse" can make faces, spit and do almost anything. It even shows amazing functions-the violent "fart flow" can be turned into a jet rowing boat and leave a desert island with another protagonist Hank.

This is a film classified by Baidu as plot, comedy and adventure. To be precise, this is a black comedy. Pedro Bo. Maia version of the Swiss Army Knife poster is designed from a special visual angle. Watch this special composition and absurd behavior carefully, just like watching this movie, and laugh and cry.

07 heroes 6

Undoubtedly, the popularity of Great White is much higher than the film itself. The facial modeling of "Dabai" was inspired by the Japanese clock. ShiyoonKim, a character designer, found that there was a slender gap connecting two holes in the upper part of the bell, which inspired the design of lines connecting two eyes.

This minimalist design concept without a mouth allows Dabai to express emotions with blinking and body movements, but it gives you more interpretation of Dabai's language with rich limbs. BerkayDaglar's poster is very well interpreted.

Second, make a movie a still picture.

In addition to the plot, many movies have high-quality pictures. Among them, wes anderson's film "The Grand Budapest Hotel", in which the tone, props, scenery, high saturation color and attention to the details of each frame have reached a paranoid level.

This picture composition and color application bring a visual feast to the viewers.

The poster works recommended below are not as simple as capturing pictures from movies, but are used by designers through their personal styles.

star wars: episode vi return of the jedi

JaehwaLee's poster creates a broad sense of space with a clean background, which makes the role modeling more prominent, and the beauty of the font of Star Wars is unobstructed.

09 Batman

The beauty of black. Batman, as a dark hero, and the plot itself and scene style are active in the dark overall atmosphere, skillfully using black as an illustration laid the emotional tone of the dark picture.

10 water story

Although Sargam fell in love with fishermen in the repressive background of the Cold War, it involved some real social problems such as racial discrimination, homosexuality and gender weakness. But the story combines lust and almost sacred love in the image of "water", completing a beautiful and fantastic adult fairy tale.

1 1 Edward Scissorhands

It never snowed before where the hostess lived. Only when Edward appeared did white snow flowers begin to fly on that land. As a machine, Edward has almost no expression, and a pair of sharp scissors hands is not conducive to expressing feelings. Against his pale face, this cool color is even more memorable.

12 Blade Runner 2049

Directed by roger deakins, this film highlights the color without losing the dystopian feeling. The picture is either a desert filled with smoke or a cold and humid rainy night, which successfully makes you feel uncomfortable in the future. Any frame of the picture is a work of art.

In the poster below, ChrisSkinner re-presents Cyberpunk-style street scenes and ambiguous neon tubes to you through his personal style.

13 matrix

The classic sci-fi movie 20 years ago, ChrisSkinner described the scene in his own way, and the details were handled in detail, which can be appreciated as an independent work.

In stormy weather, the seventh company and the ninth company fought side by side and attacked the Watergate Bridge, thus preventing the retreat of American troops. Watergate Bridge has dangerous terrain and rough surface, and the enemy has mastered the favorable terrain. In the poster of this film, volunteers are fearless and have heroic faces of heroes against heroes.

My personal opinion.

From the poster, we can see at a glance that the artillery fire in this war is very fierce, occupying the whole area of the poster. At first glance, people think the war is also very touching. Of course, I have to say that the staff who make posters have good basic skills and can let people see the war from the posters. Of course, I also want to look forward to the wonderful performances of the actors. The play was released on New Year's Day, which made everyone very excited. After all, it is the first day of the new year, and everyone will be in a good mood to watch this movie!

How to design movie posters? The specific process is as follows:

Need to find a movie, here is "Big Fish Begonia" as an example.

Open PS, first use two sky materials to synthesize a favorite background.

Look for the main elements, and you can find the characters in the movie.

Cut out the characters, put them in the background and adjust them to the right position.

Write the name of the movie on it and adjust the position of the text reasonably, and a beautiful movie poster will be completed.
