Movies

 

Last week I was in London to work at Territory Studio. I met David Sheldon-hicks, creative director of the studio, at Offf 2 years ago and we have a project in mind together since then! We are working on it, so I hope I can share it with you soon. Territory studio is famous for their work on movies graphics such as Guardians of the galaxy or Avengers. Here comes some photos I did in the studio (even if it was hard to take pictures because I see a lot of secret project on these screens !) that I play with... and their work on the first Guardians... More soon !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It seems time stop on January 22th 2015 in the studio ! 

 

 

 

They did all the graphics on this famous trailer of the movie with the team is at the prison...

 

 

 

 

 

 

As all Wes Anderson movies, The Grand Budapest Hotel is a strange and special world, where everything is unreal but seems so real ! I loved it ! I like his other movies, but this one is so funny and so graphic... Of course, graphic design take a big part in it.

 

 

 

 

Creative review has a very interesting interview with Annie Atkins, the film's lead graphic designer who was responsible for every graphic prop in the movie.

 

Here comes a little extract : It's an absolute dream job and my head still spins when I remember the first call from Wes's producer. It was a shock - I remember trying to sound really professional and calm on the phone, but I was actually doing cartwheels around the room. (...) Wes is completely involved in every aspect of his filmmaking, and I worked very closely with him and the production designer, Adam Stockhausen, every day. This film was particularly fun, I think, from a graphics point of view, because we were creating this entirely fictional country that Wes had written - the State of Zubrowka. It meant that every little detail had to be made from scratch - flags, banknotes, postage stamps, everything.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The online promotion is also singular, with the www.akademiezubrowka.com but also the zubrowkafilmcommission.tumblr.com, both designed by Watson Design Group.

 

 

 

 

 

And if you want to know more, read the NYtimes article avout the The Miniature Model, and "Art director Adam Stockhausen on creating the world of "... and if you haven't yet, go to see the movie !

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, this is the 4th selection of movie posters ! First one was done in 2009 ! You can found them in the archives here : part 1 / part 2 / part 3.

 

The difference for this year selection is that I also include fan ones, not official ones and unselected designer works... I put them in small, I try as much as possible to link back to designer but this would have been too much wor, so you can found links and bigger images on my pinterest page here.

 

Scott Woolston portfolio is full if movie posters... selection !

 

 

 

Some nice posters by Adam Juresko too...
