Movie Poster Design
Goal
My goal for this project was to take the Bollywood thriller Andhadhun and reimagine it through a Hollywood lens, creating a movie poster that retained the suspenseful essence of the original film while incorporating the polish and dramatic flair typical of Hollywood thrillers. I aimed to design a poster that would feel at home in a Western film market, appealing to audiences familiar with dark thrillers.
Process
I began by analyzing the key themes and visuals of Andhadhun, including its suspenseful storyline and complex characters. I looked at posters for Hollywood thrillers to understand the layout, typography, and color schemes commonly used. After sketching initial concepts, I focused on creating a clean, intense composition with high-contrast colors and dramatic lighting to heighten the tension. Using Photoshop, I played with effects that added depth and mystery, such as shadowing, to give it a more cinematic feel. I also incorporated bold, minimalist typography typical of Hollywood thrillers to maintain the sleek, professional aesthetic.
Solution
The final result was a movie poster that captured the intrigue of Andhadhun while embodying a Hollywood style. With dramatic lighting, intense contrasts, and a modern, minimalist font, the poster achieved a suspenseful, polished look. This project not only met my goals of blending Bollywood and Hollywood aesthetics but also allowed me to practice techniques in movie poster design, from visual composition to thematic expression.
