During my creation of this poster for The Shining, I looked for imagery that not only tied into my quote, but I also wanted to allude to the plot of the movie with my execution. At the part in the movie where my quote comes in, the little boy in the movie writes "redrum" all over the walls in red crayon. I decided to stay true to the way the movie displayed the words and hand-letter the font in my own "possessed" red crayon lettering. As for the path that I wrote the type along, I used the shape of the hedge maze in the movie. The hedge maze is important symbolism in the movie as it represents Jack's descent into madness and is an important location in the plot. These choices combined with Stanley Kubrick's classic title lettering reached my goal of making the poster tie into the plot elements of the movie and match the visual language.
