Film Posters

This is from a 'Film Poster' design project, using pictograms in a new context to change their meaning. This image is a design based on the film 'Rainman', I have merged the symbol of the 'gents toilets' and a rain cloud, changing the head of the figure to a rain drop. There is no use of colour because I feel the character is very simple in his nature.

This design is for the film 'Man on Fire' and is a contrast to the previous design. The main character in the film is very emotional and determined. I have used a dark grey colour for the figure of the man, and a dark brown background because this creates a vague silhouette to suggest intimidation. The fire around the figure symbolises emotion. His tie is highlighted in white to suggest that he is trustworthy in his role as a bodyguard, and it contrasts well with the title.
