A project of the Spanish design firm atipo, the ultra-minimalist movie poster collection “Papers For Characters” takes iconic movies like Jaws and Rear Window and strips them down to their most basic elements. Those elements are translated into the insanely specific medium of papers of various sheet weights and textures, which are then hand manipulated to release the artistic soul of the film as expressed through the medium of design. Or it’s just a fun guessing game, whatever. Regardless, try to figure out which films are represented by each of the posters below, then find the answers in this making-of video.
