Often times movie posters highlight the actors, themes and characters as the central focus of the illustrations but these poster redesigns by German duo Stellavie Design Manufaktur and Julian Rentzsch spotlights the film directors instead. The illustrations capture the talent of the director and their most popular films in a watercolor collage style.

While directors really help to make a film what it is, they are often sidelined from the spotlight as other aspects take centre stage. These monochromatic film posters pay tribute to these creatives with a hand drawn illustration of the director surrounded by symbols, figures, quotes and characters from their most famous films. The posters include directors such as Quentin Tarantino, Stanley Kubrick and Tim Burton.
