This project is a poster design for the film Suspiria. I was assigned this film and was immediately attracted to its bright colours and fairytale elements. Inspired by the movie’s primary influences, tricolour lighting, the Brothers Grimm, and Art Deco set design, I sought to create a poster that conveyed these distinct elements.

I played with different materials, experimenting with texture and gestural drawing, aiming to capture the film’s mood and atmosphere rather than using literal imagery from it. The different textures featured in the poster create a visual contrast, communicating both the beauty and unease present within Suspiria. Additionally, the colour scheme was developed to replicate the vivid hues of the iconic lighting and tricolour influences within the film, helping to capture its dramatic and surreal atmosphere.
