Steinberg Brothers- Movie Poster Design



As we started this this section I could see more of a graphic form that is really related to today. Every class I seem to say that but this seems to the closest yet. The use of photos in work is a big part and I like doing that as well. The Russian movement really utilized posters for propaganda and brought a new level of creativity to modern design.


Steinberg Brothers defining a movie poster is really interesting as I have always been drawn to that type of design I think it would be a highlight of my career to work on such a project.

Rodchenko seemed to be the man of the century by designing so much and being so influential with his designs.
