totally addicted to bass..saul bass


heres an image to drum up interest in a film
being made by sam fielder. its an odd tale filled
with supernatural things..i thought an ode to bass
and 50 and 60's poster design would suit..but with
a modern twist

bear and boy




stage 3
adding little details like this lantern bird
and colour grading more and then ofcourse
the type...



stage 2
combining the illustration with old newspapers
and parchment i get this weathered textured
backing and then colour grade and light to
match.


stage one..
inspired by peter pan and little nemo
i really wanted to do someone sailing
on a cloud..originally the captain had
an octopus on his head but that looked
silly..

stage 3 soon

the audreys poster comp.

its amazing what a bit of aging can do
to a poster..i went from liking to loving
this one now...of course that will change
as soon as i start my next project...sigh




i dont usually enter poster comps but
this one seemed to tempting to pass up..
esp seeing the audreys have a rich history
of great posters..theres also the golden
carrot of being featured in a magazine..
niiiice...so fingers crossed..lets see
how my ode to french poster design goes

grin and bear it




here's an early version of the latest crooked fiddle
poster..its a lot different to how i first saw it
but with most things it evolved into something better
along the way..although the b&w version may be closer
to what i had in mind
