Pretty in Pink Poster Redesign

For this assignment, we were instructed to recreate a movie poster. I was determined to make this print something I am extremely proud of.

I decided to follow an 80’s classic – Pretty in Pink. I love the aesthetics of this film! I typically do my projects with blue or purple color schemes, but I wanted to see how well I could do with a color I have never played with before.

Final Product

Here was my inspiration for this project.

Using a free font named “Blackout” from dafont.com, and a pink paint stroke .png file from pngitem.com, I elevated my design. I went through many drafts to make sure the final product was perfect. Finally, I took my InDesign file back into Photoshop. Here, I added a mask to remove the white backdrop, a halftone effect, and the healing tool. I am so proud of how this turned out!
