For now, I want to share about these great project byStellavie, the hamburg based design studio run by Steffen Heidemann and Viktoria Klein. This time the duo partnered up with illustratorJulian Rentzsch. Skillfully set typography and an extraordinarily beautiful cotton paper stock paired with Julians remarkable drawing and illustration skills, both analogue and digital, these prints portrait some of the most brilliant minds and their work within the history of cinematography.

 

Here comes details and nice infos about each poster ! 

 

 

 

Tarantino

"I steal from every movie ever made“. Nobody in cinema is able to merge the influence of pop culture with the art and aesthetic of poetic violence and unique storytelling as clever as Quentin Tarantino.

Lynch

"This whole world's wild at heart and weird on top". Lynchs disrupted characters are as cryptic as his neo-noir stories.

Kubrick

"If it can be written, or thought, it can be filmed."

Burton

"Movies are like an expensive form of therapy for me". Tim Burton creates imaginative, surrealistic worlds with fantastical (and often slightly creepy) characters that truly enrich our imagination. It’s almost magic. This portrait illustrates the distinctive genius enlaced with references from his work within the history of cinematography. It is the remarkable drawing and illustration skills of Julian Rentzsch, both analogue and digital, the skillfully set typography and an extraordinarily beautiful cotton paper stock which truly turn this print into an absolute favorite, not only for hardcore cineasts.
