Poster Credits



Poster credits are the legal lines that appear in movie posters, giving credit to the cast and crew that made the film, as well as the producers, distributor and financier behind it. Poster credits are widely known also as 'billing blocks' or 'credit blocks'.

How many lines do they have?

- Poster credits have an average of four lines, usually laying at the bottom of the poster, underneath the title. For layout purposes, you can see poster credits with 6-8 lines justified left or right. Sometimes they also circulate around the edge of the poster. Poster credits play an integral part of the design.

What logos should there be?

- By convention, the logo of the distributor appears in the bottom right, the logos of the production companies begin in the bottom left.
