8 brilliant alternative posters for The Walk

8 brilliant alternative posters for The Walk
15 February 2016

Don’t look down.

Solid advice for Philippe Petit, the French high-wire artist who infamously shuffled with a 26ft-long balancing pole perched precariously between New York’s World Trade Centres in 1974, but terrible advice for you…

No, you’ll want to scroll down immediately when you realise what visual treats await you...

With Joseph Gordon-Levitt drama The Walk hitting Blu-Ray and DVD (out now), we asked the graphic designers among you to create some alternative posters of the film in return for the chance of a big prize (32-in LED TV and Blu-Ray player for the winner) as well as having said work included in a gallery of the best.

The wait is over: we’ve whittled the best of them below, starting with the winner, who's really proven they can walk the walk.
