Movie Poster

Creating a Movie Poster

So you like movies, well now is your chance to create the next great economics movie concept and then ‘sell’ your movie through a great movie poster.

Think of your favorite movie, what mental image comes to mind. Often that could be the poster that advertised the movie. This poster gave a glimpse of what the movie was about, giving a visual insight. And no good movie poster is complete without that tag line - a quick anecdote to help sell the movie. See the examples below …

Now I challenge you to create a movie poster ‘selling’ an economic concept with a strong visual and a quick, insightful tagline. Your movie poster needs to have a movie title that gives a framework of your economic topic, a visual that gives insight to your ‘movie’ and helps give a visual to the economic concept, and a tagline to pulls everything together.
