The Buñuel Film Festival

Luis Buñuel is known as the Godfather of the surrealist film movement in the 1920's. His films often slowly reveal the truth behind his characters by peeling back the layers of their personalities throughout the film to eventually expose their true nature. 

This festival poster was made out of 50+ preliminary poster versions that I designed during early explorations. As complex and surreal as Buñuel’s movies are, I found the design process for this festival to be even more so. After watching several of his films, I was able to piece together the common thread in his work and found a parallel between the layers of his characters and the many versions of posters I had designed.
