movie posters

Yeah, I'm a Harry Potter fan... so let's talk about movie posters... The top poster uses silhouettes which is a good technique becuause it gives a suspicious, unknowing, mysterious theme; it is a mysterious, dark, creepy, feeling about the movie the poster is about. This poster be a tease poster and not the real thing.
Another good technique movie designers use is composition: the order of images and/or characters that are about the movie. In the second poster the main character is centered and in front of the not-as-important characters.
The last poster has a creepy, dark feeling about it; well, the guy on the poster is Voldemort, the most evil, heartless man in the movie. It's about color, composition, and audience.
