Paint a movie poster like Drew Struzan in 7 easy steps!

let's draw a movie poster like Drew Struzan, the iconic illustrator behind so many famous posters!

"Springtime" (available for commercial and personal use on Imovie)
"Epic Hollywood trailer" and "Chasing Victory" (both by Daddy's Music, Zakhar Valaha), available for commercial and Personal use on Pixabay

thank you to Olivier, Alex, Eugene, James and Mark for their help and for the fun we had shooting this parody trailer.

1. Grey background
2. Flecking, spotting to add texture
3. Make composition like Drew Struzan does, rectangle with big triangle, space for the titles.
4. Draw it in pencil or similar
5. Ink the drawing
6. Shade it in greyscale using few tones.
7. Begin airbrushing on top of the inking, yellow, orange, red, brown for warm colors, then light blue, dark blue, grey and almost black for cold colors
8. Add color pencils on top of everything. Add light to dark areas, and dark to your lights. Add texture.
9. Enhance the colors. Make your blacks blacker and your whites whiter. Contrast.
10. Add finishing touches (lens flares, lights, etc.)
I would say, Drew Struzan's paintings always have a lot of texture, so I would make sure that you add texture with colored pencils, brushes and more during all the steps on which its possible. I would also think this would all apply to digital too, using common brushes.
