Been a while since we had a new independently produced poster, so great to find this one by Jason W Stanley today whilst mooching through the SOURCE CODE Flickr group.
Jason has also been kind enough to let us know about the idea & inspiration behind his SOURCE CODE poster.
The idea behind my work was inspired by a range of minimalist poster designs I’d seen online (Olly Moss and Simon Page to name a couple).
Having seen the film that same day, an image of the rail road tracks instantly came into my mind and I decided this was to be the main focus of my poster.
The tracks run parallel and represent the two different ‘realities’ one continuing off the page and one ending abruptly.
The story of Source Code is what drove me to create this piece as I’ve always been interested in alternate time-lines, parallel universes etc. The film makes you think and try to work out the story as it’s progressing and I wanted a poster that could reflect that by not giving too much away.
Thanks to Jason for allowing us to share, and for the lettings us know how it came about to begin with. You can see more of Jason’s graphic design work on his site here.
