1917 Steel Book Blu-Ray Mock Up - Alt movie poster

I thought I wold mock up a Steel Book Blu-Ray in the style of Zavvi with my 1917 alternative poster design on the front.

I have been experimenting with multiple uses of Smart Objects in Photoshop. The idea is to only have to place two images ( the dvd cover and the spine) and it updates the whole image - the reflection and background colour etc). I am still ironing out the bugs but once I have done this I should be able to easily make a whole set of Steel Book Blu-Ray mock ups with other alternative movie poster designs.

Christopher Nolan Minimal Movie Poster Designs

Taking inspiration from classic grid design, originating from Switzerland, I have created minimal poster designs based on three movies from Christopher Nolan’s amazing filmography.

Memento

Although he already used non-linear story telling in his debut, Following, here Nolan uses a backwards plot structure to be the main hook of the movie.

I have used a spiral to represent not only the backwards timeline but also the degrading state of Leonard's (Guy Pearce) mind. The crosses symbolise the various events that Leonard deems important enough to tattoo all over his body.

Interstellar

Arguably the most emotional of Nolans films. The scene were Coop watches the videos from his children after escaping Miller's ocean planet is devastating.

This design suggests how, during space travel Coop and Brand's journey causes time to be inconsistent and undulate as they travel trough wormholes and near black holes.

Inception

My favourite of Nolans movies so far, or at least the most "re-watchable". First class action set pieces and mind-bending, intricately plotted story about that desperate need to just get "home".

Did the spinning top wobble or not?

Here I have used ever decreasing squares to symbolise Cobb and his team’s journey into the dreams within dreams. Each square is made up of hundreds of rectangles, showing the cityscape folding in on itself.

Aliens Alternative Movie Poster

To celebrate Mothers Day I chose to paint one of Hollywoods most Bad Ass Mothers, the Alien Queen. I then thought I would mock it up into a couple of poster designs.

Created using Procreate
