Brief Musings On Poster Design

I used to do Graphic Design on the side. I especially utilized these skills towards the marketing for any theater company I was involved with at any given time. So I was familiar with the rules when it came to layouts for posters and postcards. I was also aware of how those rules could sometimes be broken. I am also a big fan of the four color, silk screened process of the great rock poster designers like Coop, Art Chantry and Frank Kozik. And my joy of graphic design in general has it’s seed in my childhood obsession with comic books and the iconic movie posters of the Hildebrandt Brothers (STAR WARS) and Drew Struzan (RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK).
