Video of the Week #21

Some design trends are a big mystery for us. When the subject is movie poster, there are some things that tend to repeat from time to time. We even had a post about hand drawn movie posters some time ago.

What about that weird trend of flying heads? You don't know what I'm talking about? Then you should probably pay more attention to action movies. Here's a little list of movies that got posters with flying heads.

  • Casualties of War
  • Space Cowboys
  • A Few Good Men
  • Courage Under Fire
  • Rules of Engagement
  • and so many others...

So, just for us to chill out a little bit during our busy day, watch this clever video. Cheers! ;)

Oh my gosh, this was hilarious. I love what he said about adding the body back to Morgan Freeman.

I thought it was serious until he was working on the moodboard for Righteous Kill...

I didn't realize it wasn't serious until 15 seconds into it. :(
