Movie Posters
Recreating classic movie posters, but with a plogging/trash twist
Movie posters are posted to my instagram account as well as a @PostersWithATwist
​
What are they?
Once a week I try and recreate of movie poster. But I don't just recreate it, I give it a twist (usually around plogging, but could be anything that is relevant to my mission and account)
​
No A.I. and no cheating.
Just as with all of my website, I don't like to use A.I. . This means that all the elements I have creted myself. I don't ask a computer to do it for me.
I do use Photoshop to add filters, adjust and tweak a bit, but the work is all mine and not ChatGPTs
​
This makes it a long process. I don't have a bag of trash I just re-use. I first go out and plog what I need.
I take photos that I need for backgrounds etc.
And the I build up the poster entirely from scratch.
​
What it misses in accuracy, it makes up in terms of authenticity.
​
How it started
During the pandemic, people started recreating posters and paintings. I just jumped on that bandwagon but made it relevant to trash picking and plogging.
​
Every week
Before becoming a professional plogger, I did there posters on Saturday's. But the problem with that was that I would often have events in the weekend which made it a bit to stressful.
Now that I am full time I can do mid-week. I will try and post around the same day (Wednesday) - but I am less strict with myself
​
6 month hiatus
From March 2024 to Oct 2024 I didn't make any new ones.
It wasn't becuase I didnt want to, but just becuase my laptop broke down and I couldn't afford a new one (Photoshop loves an expensive graphics card). But I have a new laptopm now and so I can resume.
​
​
Here are all the ones I have done so far (in order of producing so that you can see the development of the idea). I have marked my favourite ones
