Anyone (out of the forum members) into alternative movie poster designing? Amateur or professional?

Well I do...

Here's my humble amateur exhibition so far

Hi! I'm an illustrator working in Toronto, Canada, with a focus on monsters, horror and movie poster artwork. You can check out more of my work at http://www.trevor-henderson.com .

Big fan of your work Trevor.

I did a few posters for a cinema series over here. Just waiting for the image buttons to come back so I can post few of them.

Some of the posters I did for the local art house cinema.

In The Realm Of The Senses, awesome poster. Great work!

Great posters, Oswarez! I particularly dig your They Live poster. Were these made as limited edition posters for sale or simply put up at the theater as advertising?

Holy shit! They're awsome. Nice work!

Those are amazing, Oswarez! Great job!

@FnordChan They were put up as advertising.
And thanks for the props guys.

@Oswarez any chance you have one of those They Live posters on hand that you might part with?

No unfortunately I don't. I could maybe print a few if there is enough interest in them.

Really love the DAWN OF THE DEAD one...great eye .

Great stuff! I really like the They Live poster as well!

Cool thread, love you guys' work!

Couple of bits, just done for my own amusement:

Not horror, but I did this poster a while back for grins.

I got bored last week and made this for Gravity.

Nice stuff...all of you!

Oswarez...on newspaper weight stock like some of the ones I had from the 60's

Great stuff right here!

Hardly a poster design, but a sketch I did a while back while watching I Spit on your Grave:

I did a THING poster a couple of years ago and it was chosen by John Carpenter for his Screamfest 2012 presentation and showing of Prince of Darkness, they all sold out and proceeds went to the Humane Society. It was also in a book that just came out last year as well: "Alternative Movie Posters: Film Art from the Underground". It's a pretty awesome book, check it out here http://www.huffingtonpost.com/matthew-c ... 74217.html

Was going to start another thread for our 16mm film night posters, but think it's nicer that they nestle in here with everyone else's fine work

Most recent, our coming show in August (three colour variations):



Last month's film:



Phase IV:



Cat People:



All the above were by myself, the rest are all by great local artist Ellena Donlon:







Loving seeing everyone else's interpretations of great film posters, keep them coming!

...and here's my latest work-in-progress for an upcoming screening in September.....

discosucks - Very cool! Perfect style choice for Repulsion ...really captures the feel of the film.

^^ Thanks man! Appreciated. I'm (genuinely) never sure about my designs....I think mainly cuz I'm so out of practice (I used to do loads of illustration back a decade or so, have been sucked into mostly film/video imaging for a long while....)
