Seek & Speak Movie PostersSeek & Speak Movie PostersSeek & Speak Movie PostersSeek & Speak Movie Posters

Public screening of classic movies can give a designer the opportunity to recreate movie posters the way they should have been done from the beginning. Brandon Schaefer of seekandspeak.com has redesigned posters for some popular movies. Overall they have a nice illustrative feel and capture the essence & feel of the movie.

Between these posters and yesterday’s Movie posters for minimalists, and other movie poster redesigns I’ve seen – maybe Hollywood should take note. A movie poster should be more than photos of the three stars doing something wacky on a colored background with a Gill Sans Ultra Bold headline.

I saw Burn After Reading exclusively because of it’s Saul Bass-esque poster. Unfortunately, that movie kind of sucked.

Check out this wicked set of movie poster remakes. This graphic exercise by ilikegraphics is an exercise in minimalism.

This is my not too serious minimalist poster series for cult films. The vague rules were a circle, lowercase text & one or two images (not from the film) that relate to something in the film (which will not probably make sense unless you’ve seen the film!)

See all of the posters on flickr.

Where The Wild Things Are

Spike Jonze is directing this adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s classic children’s book. It’ll be interesting to see if the movie lives up to the book – I know plenty of people who hold this book up as a significant part of their childhood and this movie will either be embraced or rejected.

The movie will be released October 16th, 2009. View the official WTWTA site.

alice_in_wonderland

Be still my heart!!! My absolute favorite Disney movie of all time is Alice in Wonderland. I think I’ve wanted to be Alice for 20+ years now and my heart skipped a beat when I came across the new movie that releases right around my birthday in March, 2010. With a cast of Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter, and from Tim Burton’s wild imagination, there is no doubt this movie will be phenomenal. I can’t wait for more sneak-peeks to be released! Until then, enjoy some pictures and info that I did find here. You can view a sneak peak trailer at Apple Trailers.
