This poster is a simple design that is really effective for the movie Inception. The visual uses the pen tool, the direct select arrow, and the color bucket in the creation of these figures. If I were to produce a similar illustration, I would draw one of the figures with the pen tool, and then I would make duplicates of the figure. Next, I would use the direct select arrow on each duplicate to change the hairline a bit, and the paint bucket to change the color. This poster is simply designed yet it is clever and creative.
I like this poster, a lot. The repetition used really emphasizes the movies oddity. It seems easy to replicate this poster, definitely using the pen tool and color bucket. I like the colors too; red is very drawing and bold, and fits the context of the movie.
I really love how all the heads have their own unique features. no two heads are exactly the same. the color choice also gives it the inception feel to it.
