This week we studied Drew Struzan's famous poster designs. He is a master of compositional layout and his work is extremely well-known.
I honestly struggled a lot with this piece. I should have chosen a more stylized way to present the image, rather than just making a mediocre copy of the original. I would have enjoyed the assignment more, I think.
I believe this piece displays multiple types of composition, the first being across layout. The main characters in the scene are laid out across horizontal and vertical lines, with the attention being drawn to the middle of the page.
I could also argue that the image showcases a pyramid layout as well. Because the heads vary in size, their positioning simulates two opposing triangles that, once again, draw attentions towards the middle of the composition.
