Movie Posters

Movie Posters


"Super 8"

"The Slender Man"

"Batman: The Dark Knight Rises"


All of these movie posters share similar tonal attributes in one way or another.  They make use of darker and more shaded grays and blacks with whites as highlights.  This conveys a darker atmosphere and usually foreshadows some form of impending doom.  The text is easily readable, but that is not what the posters are centered around.  They are more visually appealing, than the text is.  Of all of the posters, my most favorite would have to be the Batman one.  The use of a multi-leveled background and visual images is remarkable.  However I do like the Slender Man poster because it focuses the viewer's attention towards the middle, looking on at a shady figure that is in what appears to be a mist.  All in all these posters have done a good job in captivating the viewer and conveying the atmosphere of the movie.
