A bus shelter poster of a personally influential design period and artist: 1920s Russian Constructivist movie posters, specifically from the Stenberg Brothers.
RESEARCH
Before I narrowed down my exact topic to the Stenberg Brothers, I first chose the overall topic of Russian Constructivism, specifically in the 1920s; Their posters have excellent hierarchy and can effectively convey a message without seeming over or under-designed.

VERSION 1
Taking what I thought were the most effective and cohesive Stenberg Brothers movie posters and putting them all together, I established hierarchy and grouping from where I want the viewer's eyes to go and in what order. However, I felt that the poster was still visually lacking a "punch" to make it more eye-catching and engaging.

VERSION 2
Version 2 extended visual elements on both the top and bottom of the poster to unite the different groupings. I also added a rough, grainy texture for a more retro feel.
