Movie Poster Design for "Blue is the Warmest Color"
Blue Is the Warmest Color (French: Le bleu est une couleur chaude, originally announced as Blue Angel) is a French graphic novel by Jul Maroh, published by Glénat in March 2010. The English-language edition was published by Arsenal Pulp Press in 2013. The novel tells a love story between two young women in France at the end of the 1990s.
Abdellatif Kechiche directed a film adaptation in 2013, titled Blue Is the Warmest Colour, which was awarded the Palme d'Or at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival.
In this work, the presence of the heroine's hair marks the beginning of the importance of the colour blue. It can feel cold, warm, or mysterious... Every scene is beautiful and artistic, fully reflecting the charm of the two heroines. In designing the poster, I hoped to capture the allure of the blue in this work.​​​​​​​
