Movie posters are somewhat less prominent than they used to be, but they are still widely used as promotional artworks for feature films. Â When designing a movie poster, some artists opt for minimalistic, other movie posters use computer graphics from the film as the basis. Â Some, all, or even none of the plot can be revealed via the movie poster.
