Stephen King Re-Envisioned: 'Carrie'

Wow. What a whirlwind the past couple of days have turned out to be. And just to start, I'd like to thank everyone who's reblogged, retweeted, e-mailed, commented & shown support for the "Hitchcock Re-Envisioned" Posters. I never imagined that a project I started on a whim would take on such a mind of it's own. But I'm happy to share this with everyone and continue the evolution of it. 

With that, I introduce the first of 4 Posters that will be a part of the Stephen King set. Ever since I was a child, I've been a huge King fan. His books & films have had such gravitas and depth aside from the genre, that he seemed like a natural progression after Hitchcock. One thing I wanted to make sure to do with this set, and feel comes through, is some variations in style. The Hitchcock set was about strong figure work & defined color palates, but with the King set I wanted to explore more with color & shape. I also wanted to take two ideas into account. King is an excellent writer, so bringing an homage to Book Jacket Design was a must, as well as a personal choice on giving it a tinge of 1920's Poster Art Styling. I felt the 20's had a strong sense of iconic imagery that wove together, and it felt like a right match for the King Set.

I hope you all enjoy this one and look forward to sharing the others as they get completed! As usual, If you have any recommendations for what You'd like to see Re-Envisioned next, let me know!

This is amazing! I've been a King fan since I was a kid, and this poster captures the novel's mood with a very elegant simplicity. I can't wait to see the rest of the set!

That would be an example of the throwback kind. Sports stars put them on now and again during games also.
