I have had the great opportunity to design a couple of posters, along with several social media posts, for Chameleon Film Studios. Chameleon Film Studios is a film production company based in Denver, Colorado. They have won accolades for their films, Lucidity and WE. I was tasked to create posters for these films. Each poster conveys subtle messages about the theme in order to generate interest in the films.
Lucidity is a sci-fi drama. It deals with the problems of grief and loneliness. It also addresses some motives and negative consequences of drug use through a fictional drug which allows the user to fall into a fantasy. I was brought onto the project after the rest of the production was completed and only had a handful of photos to work with. I chose to repeat a close-up of the main actress. With each panel, the subject becomes blurrier.
WE is a short thriller revolving around identity loss. It creates a more gritty atmosphere. I wanted the poster to convey the same grit and confusion the film depicts. I took a photo of the leading actor and stylized it to look like a misprint.
