These are some of the characters used in the TV show American Horror Story- Freak Show. Each character is unique and would be very interesting to see how well they would transfer to the Saul Bass style. As the show is based around 'Freaks' each character is different and recognisable to the show, so it would be easy to show the audience what show the poster is advertising.
These are the colours used in the season, because its based in a carnival/freakshow bright colours are used but they are often mixed with darker tones giving it a more cynical look. The bright colours and shades used are always contrasted against a dark character.
These are some places that are similar to the ones used in the show. I decided to look at different fair grounds, some of these are ones actually used in the show and others are some similar. The show is set in the 50's so it would be an old fashioned fairground.
There are places like american diners that the characters go to, so would be able to use something like that on my posters but think that the fair ground would be a better choice as it is recognisable to the series.
