The Best Film Festival Posters of 2015

By Jose Alberto Hermosillo

 

The Best Film Festival Posters of 2015

Festival in LA has chosen the best posters from film festivals around the World of 2015.

The intention is to recognize film festivals' creation, imagination, enthusiasm, and originality.

The art of creating a film festival poster is more complex. It has to contain similar artistic elements to a painting.


The composition must be original, beautiful, and harmonized with style, color, funds, and information

It has to be simple and bright, with a limited pallet of colors (no more than five), subtle contrast, alignment, and readability. Above all, it has to be consistent with the festival's theme.

 
And the Best Film Festival Posters of 2015 are:
