Fan Creations From Minimalist Promos to Recasted Renderings
Jason Soy — November 20, 2011 — Pop Culture
The Internet is literally flooded with movie poster parodies and it's not hard to see why. Graphic designers both love and are easily inspired by the visionary work of the cinema, so it's only right that they pay homage to the film industry by creating Hollywood-related art content. It's also a spiffy way to showcase artists' design capabilities while simultaneously garnering some media attention for their work. And since the cinema industry benefits from free promotion, making movie poster parodies is essentially beneficial for all parties involved.
One emergent pattern found in this collection of fan works is the use of a minimalist approach when it comes to illustrating graphics. It seems artists are trying to convey as much as possible with as little as possible, hearkening to the work of the late Saul Bass, who utilized silhouettes and simplistic designs to convey characters and scenes.
