Case Study
This is a Poster design I created for a pop-up restaurant event called “Blue Crush Tropical Takeover”. My client was looking for a retro 50s and 60s identity for their poster. They also wanted to incorporate influence from the 2002 surfer movie “Blue Crush”.
All vector poster designs have a certain pull that regular posters do not have. It's simple, and easy for the eye to read. The color palette was based off the yellow that Brad Pitt is wearing in the poster. That helped create a fully cohesive design.
With Harley Davidson, they have over a hundred years of history. I wanted to keep things simple and classic. I brought in an old Harley Davidson motorcycle from the 50s/60s.
Sometimes less is more. I wanted to keep things simple with this poster because I wanted to keep the focus on the title and the main characters.
This film took place in the 70's which had an instrumental influence in the color palette.
When making a Goodfellas poster I had to think of the most impactful scene. This scene is one that everyone who is a fan of Goodfellas will recognize. The effects and colors I used to create this poster was an exciting task I gave myself. I really enjoyed making this poster.
The inspiration for this alternate Ferris Bueller's Day Off poster came from the iconic Ferrari. I wanted the red to be the only color used in the poster in order not to distract the viewer.
This one was particularly exciting and challenging to make. The gradient effect in photoshop is not one I use often. To exercise and experiment with this tool yielded interesting and fun results for this Han Solo poster.
I chose this scene from The Godfather as the focus of my poster design because this is one of the two major scenes in the movie that altered Michael Corleone's life. It may not be that iconic like other scenes in the film, but it is an important scene that fans of the movie will love.
Here we have another vector poster for A Nightmare On Elm Street. The colors I chose were chosen based on Freddy Krugers sweater. I kept things simple and sweet as to not distract the eye.
