It is interesting as their film is at somewhat of an homage to the past with the state of affairs today (though Helmut is right I’m sure in that most of the film will be on modern art and fan art posters)—which is essentially no one is doing illustrated posters, save for when one of Drew Struzan’s directing chums Lucas and Spielberg need a poster—or Frank Darabont, so interesting to see artists creating their interpretation of the posters—which isn’t anything new, Batiste Madalena is a good example.
But, Batiste was making the posters to be exhibited with the films at the Eastman Theatre in New York, not decades after the film was released. I’m not a fan of the fan art, but I am a fan of those with a passion for something they love above commercialism. Could be an interesting movie. I didn’t mind the slight digital manipulation they made in After Effects. It isn’t changing the artwork, it just slightly manipulates it (with a lot of work to do that) the art to give it life that is different from the more common Ken Burns effect, which might be more effective if it didn’t remind us all how long those Ken Burns sagas are. -d > On Aug 9, 2016, at 6:31 AM, Helmut Hamm <[email protected]> wrote: > > Looking at the title, I get the impression that this will be much more about > the modern Mondo style poster prints, and not so much about vintage theatre > posters. > > Helmut > >> >> I really dislike those effects on the posters.
