The first flyer was originally an excuse for testing a couple of custom brushes done by Chad Essley especially for TVPaint Animation.

Starting from the shape of Yan Harris which stands for the ‘i’ in the original logo, everything was done with an excess of splats, splashes, dots, drops & spray and then, tweaking the colours via blending modes.

The second flyer is a tribute to graphic designer Saul Bass, directly inspired by his movie posters.

who is Saul Bass?

You may not know his name but you have probably already met his work through logos (United Airlines, Minolta,…), movie posters (Vertigo, West Side Story,…) or title sequences (Anatomy of a Murder, Psycho,…).

In 2002, French artists Kuntzel + Deygas have created one of the best homage ever made with the opening title of Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can, the whole footage is viewable on « Art of the Title » (highly recommended website!).
