Design Ancestor

I am going to have the Design Ancestor presentation on 25/11 and I have prepared some movie posters for the presentation.







Ancestor 1:




Ancestor 2:



The Good German (2006) is a movie takes place in post-war Berlin, where to find his former mistress, an American journalist is lured into a murder mystery. It is a movie of which the visual, performance and narrative style are just as similar as the Classic Hollywood movie –Casablanca (1942).



It’s claimed that the movie, as well as the movie poster, is inspired by the movie Casablanca. And by looking at the main features of the 2 posters, we can proved that The Good German poster is really inspired by the Casablanca poster:




1. Mainly colored with red, black and white

2. Main characters occupied a larger space

3. Other characters are located beside or above main characters as background

4. Red, Script typeface for the title

5. Three names of same typeface are written at the top





Other than Casablanca, The Good German poster is also inspired by I Love Your Work(2005) poster, let's see the similarities of these two posters:




1. Mainly colored with red, black/brown and white

2. Main character occupied a larger space

3. Main character(s) are seperated from other characters through the contrast of color

4. Names are written at the top

5. Other details written at the bottom with black texts on a white background
