Andrew Eccles, Photographer, Los Angeles

Description

This vertical promotional poster features a bright yellow background split between a stylized cartoon illustration and a live-action portrait photograph captured by photographer Andrew Eccles. The top portion shows the simplified yellow face and thick black beard of an animated character with wide white eyes. Centered typography reads, A documentary about going head to head with a stereotype, followed by the title The Problem with Apu and streaming information at the bottom. Below the text, the lower edge reveals the top half of a real man with dark curly hair and thick black glasses looking directly forward. The flat composition utilizes bold graphic contrast and centered alignment to create a striking promotional key art piece.
