Harry Potter and the principles of Art & Design

This image of Harry Potter is large in proportion and scale compared to that of Voldemort. The focal point is Harry himself. Harry's head and wand point right at you with domination and redirecting your eye moving to were the bubble with Voldemort is in. There is a lot of accent and contrast in the background the bright light gradating behind him and behind the organic shape give a lot of weight and have a dynamic relationship with each other. It draws your eye to the bottom left. The red stripe that is in Harry's cape is bold and flows off the page giving you a sense that the wind is blowing. It keeps your eye moving giving it some balance.

The font that is used in the title is unique to that of the movie. It is of a scale that is not over bearing and is in perspective to that of the poster.
