About The Poster
Creature from the Black Lagoon is an illustrated movie poster that I designed for the 1954 horror classic of the same name. It features the iconic movie monster rising from the murky waters of the lagoon. The entire poster was illustrated and designed in Adobe Photoshop.
Behind The Illustration
For the poster, I wanted to have clean, crisp lines with rich colors. I used a softer brush for the horizon to give it a murky, foggy atmosphere and then added some trees. For the type, I used a retro font reminiscent of old horror films and gave it a bright green gradient to stand out.
