Movie Poster Design

Sound of metal

This movie poster design for Sound of Metal explores the film’s core theme of losing and rediscovering sound. The visual concept focuses on the emotional isolation of the protagonist, using minimal elements to reflect silence, inner conflict, and transformation. The composition is intentionally restrained, allowing negative space to echo the absence of sound, while subtle textures and contrasts represent the distortion between hearing and deafness.

Typography is treated as an expressive element, breaking or fading to mirror the protagonist’s shifting perception of reality. The color palette leans toward muted tones, reinforcing a sense of introspection and detachment, while selective highlights draw attention to moments of realization and acceptance. Overall, the poster translates the film’s deeply personal journey into a visual narrative—capturing not just the loss of hearing, but the discovery of a new way of experiencing the world.
