SAUL BASS
ASSIGNMENT OVERVIEW: Creating and redesigning pre-existing movie posters in the style of Saul Bass, an American graphic designer and Oscar-winning filmmaker, best known for his motion-picture title sequences, film posters, and iconic corporate logos.
QUOTES:
The only way I WORK as a DESIGNER is to consciously AVOID SPECIALISATION.
My work on TITLES was a marvellous opportunity to LEARN ABOUT FILMMAKING. I think I touched on just about EVERY ASPECT of the PROCESS, both CREATIVE and TECHNICAL. And I worked with many WONDERFUL PEOPLE.
WORK? It's just serious PLAY.
I just want to make THINGS, even if NOBODY CARES.
DESIGN is THINKING made VISUAL.
If it's SIMPLE simple, it's BORING.
