Creating Posters from Text? - josephzitt - 2020-06-27
Before I reinvent the wheel: does a tool exist that would take a movie title (and, perhaps, other information) and create a properly-dimensioned poster, with the text presented legibly on a colored background, for a video that doesn't have an official one? Ideally (for me), this would be a command-line tool for Linux-like systems that would work in the Mac terminal and Windows WSL, or a cross-platform GUI.

For what it's worth, I've banged out this ImageMagick command (with the help of some research) which is a start:
convert -background blue -fill lightblue -font Impact -pointsize 144 -size 1000x1500 label:"DEEP PURPLE:\nCONCERTO FOR\nROCK BAND &\nORCHESTRA\nLIVE\n--Jon Lord" poster.jpg
