Minimalist Poster - December 2013

[Acorn]

You are invited to prepare a minimalist poster representing Irving Berlin's "White Christmas" or Tim Burton's "The Nightmare before Christmas".

Can you improve on the following posters that accompanied the movies?

What you have to do is to come up a poster to be a direct replacement for that movie by presenting one that captures the essence of the movie / plot / key scene / dialog, but at the same time it has to be minimalist.

Here is a simple attempt, which was two words and two blends but misses out on the sense of the movie.



The red blend is supposed to be festoons or paper decorations, almost in the shape of a bell.

Meant to be advertising a film.
Meant to be a poster.
Meant to be minimalist.

And... Yes... They stood there, posing, for too long!

Didn't get the minimalist part with this one but I had fun:

I like the font, it remind me of the graphics where, if you invert the text, it reads the same.

It's as much work as you want to put into it.

I like it.

This is as minimal as I wanted to go!

And, saw the film for the first time, last night.
