Olly Moss creates simplistic fan-made film posters featuring the silhouette of an important character against a black and cream background accompanied by a single bold color. The document discusses Moss' Star Wars poster series as examples that all have a recurring theme and individual feature color within the silhouettes, often depicting an important scene. It is interested in adopting this style for a short film poster.

2. O Olly Moss creates fan-made film posters in
a simplistic, signature fashion.
O His work generally features the silhouette of
an important character and uses a single
bold colour to accompany the black and
cream background.
O I am interested in using this style when
creating the short film poster.

3. Here are his posters for Star Wars episodes IV, V
and VI

4. …and episodes I, II and III

5. O As you can see from the Star Wars
examples, the posters all have a recurring
theme and their own individual ‘feature’
colour.
O Within these silhouettes, an important
scene is pictured, one example is in ‘The
Empire Strikes Back’ where Cloud City, the
location of the films climax is pictured. This
is also used as Boba Fett’s visor (the
silhouette).

6. The following greatly emphasize the colours black ,
orange and cream.
