The Lobster movie posters
2015
Yorgos Lanthimos is the designer of these two posters, in which he uses the negative space to produce creative images: on the first one a man hugging a “missing person”, and on the second one a woman doing this same thing. On each poster, we only see a few elements: a head, two hands, and the typography, but no other element is needed, because by using the white space in a clever way, Lanthimos obtains two posters very interesting to see. In addition to that, this makes the viewers of the posters feel intrigued and makes them want to see the film to understand what message is being communicated with this design. With just a few things, he accomplishes a lot, and this is all thanks to using space as a useful tool in the composition of a design.
