Objective
Create a dramatic movie poster in the style of the famous graphic designer, Drew Struzan.
Choose Your Story & Cast |
Have your models keep a neutral expression as they look into the camera and off to the side so you can choose later. Pose them so you have several options and shoot both eye-level and below. Take 30+ photos for each model. |
Open your best image of each model in Photoshop. Carefully clean up blemishes and color correct. Dodge and burn. In a 24×36 inch document, arrange in a radial composition and add colors to the background before using generative fill to convert it into a Drew Struzan style poster. Edit and try different iterations until you like the result. |
