Poster Designer for Indie Horror Comedy
Job Description
A low-budget horror comedy project is seeking a creative poster designer to bring two teaser posters to life.

• Collaborate directly with the director and writing team to match the creative vision
• Deliver digital poster files ready for promotional use
Requirements
• Strong portfolio with a focus on horror, camp, or pop-culture-inspired design
• Ability to evoke B-movie style through visuals—pulp, gritty, absurd, and fun
• Familiarity with retro horror tropes and Fangoria-style poster inspiration
• Passion for storytelling through visual design
• Reliable communication and ability to meet deadlines
Compensation
• Independent project with a limited budget
• Opportunity to collaborate on a film with high creative freedom
• Full credit and potential for ongoing partnership on future visuals
