25 Magnificent Modern Day Movie Illustrations – My Modern Metropolis
25 Magnificent Modern Day Movie Illustrations
While putting together this post, I had a hard time with the title. I was going to include the words retro or vintage but then I thought – Are most of these retro or are some of these modern? Here was my conclusion: While some of these illustrations have that retro-feel, most are a modern take on a movie classic.
What these artists have done so well is take a particular scene or character and create a visual representation of the movie. Most of the time, rather than bombard us with visuals, they ask us to draw on our experiences. From Olly Moss’s incredibly simplistic black and red movie posters to Tom Whalen and Brandon Schaefer’s more colorful, retro-inspired art, I hope you enjoy this collection of some of the most cleverest and coolest retro-modern movie illustrations around!
