Boring design 101

Generic Sci-Fi DVD design, originally uploaded by kaioshin.

I just got these two additions to my DVD collection.

They both deal with spacetime (an obsession I've gleaned from Nico) and encounters with the unconscious (my Jung obsession).

Please save your commentary, I don't care that they are mediocre films.

But I did realise that film posters like this follow a generic design formula:

- Take 2-4 pictures of lead actors
- Make them grainy and monochromatic
- Add futuristic typeface (styling with bevels and glow, to taste)
- Put a futuristic scene beneath
- Add a lense flare
