Notes From our designer John Lioe:
At LIOE design we design our own graphics, illustrations and branding. Sometimes you need reference material to look at how people tell stories and structure their content with pictures. The goal is always create a visual that speaks for itself with minimal words. Posterspy exhibits beautiful alternative posters that inspires graphic layouts.
PosterSpy: An Alternative Movie Poster Collection by Frederic Claquin, Jack Woodhams
Way before the advent of social networks, the first, and sometimes only, visual contact you may have had with a movie was its poster. To return to this enlightened approach and escape the hard selling, marketing campaigns of today's releases, this book pays tribute to the artists who celebrate the era when cinematographic posters made us dream. Presented by ARTtitude, this collaboration features the contemporary work of 58 different artists from the PosterSpy art community, one of the most influential groups devoted to alternative posters. The nearly 300 posters presented here cover a diverse range of genres and eras, from pop culture favorites like Star Wars and Goonies to the Wes Andersen filmography to horror and sci-fi classics. Each piece reveals intensely creative and detailed representations of films that ask the viewer to see the film in a new way and challenges the visual package included with the original release.
