Mission Blue.

I designed a series of Instagram posters inspired by the Netflix documentary Mission Blue, which highlights both the life of oceanographer Sylvia Earle and the urgent environmental threats facing our oceans. The posters were carefully crafted to reflect the film’s powerful themes, with the integration of text and imagery playing a central role in the design. I selected compelling quotes from the documentary and wove them into the visuals, ensuring they resonated with the audience while reinforcing the film’s message. Each poster was designed to be both informative and visually striking, drawing viewers into the urgency of ocean conservation while maintaining a strong connection to the documentary’s narrative.

To create a cohesive and immersive look, I developed a color palette inspired by the film’s underwater cinematography, incorporating deep blues and oceanic tones that complemented the typography. This careful selection of colors helped unify the series while enhancing the emotional impact of the messaging. The imagery and text worked together to balance beauty with urgency, capturing attention on social media while encouraging viewers to reflect on the importance of ocean preservation. By blending aesthetic appeal with meaningful content, the posters served as a visual call to action, urging audiences to engage with the film’s mission and the broader conversation about protecting marine ecosystems.
