To help a set of students understand the principles behind a illustrative project, I undertook to do the project with the same criteria as they had. The aim was to recreate 10 movie posters; one from each decade of the 20th Century. They could then use illustrator or Photoshop and a combination of photography and illustration to complete the task. These are my attempts.
