PROMPT SELECTION: MOVIE POSTERS THAT NEVER WERE

Is there anybody out there who is not into movies? Probably not. But, how many of you actually pay attention to movie posters? Probably, few. There are many reasons to it, one of them being the lost art of movie posters design. In the era of VOD, pay-per-view and what not, posters are usually movie stills with a bolded title or in italic, or both, and that’s it. And it works fine for many, you don’t usually want to linger over the artwork when picking up the title for your comedy night with friends. It’s only when we go to the movies that we can really take a closer look at the poster, like printed out, hanging on the wall. And it is still so much fun! Until you notice the crappy design. Often crippled by the all-mighty Hollywood folks, there is so much space for improvement. If you wish you could get it done better, now it’s the time to have some fun. By using the latest DALL·E 3 not only can you become a movie poster designer, but a poster designer for movies that never were! Should we count you in?
