Final Fantasy The Spirits Within is a computer animated science film from Sony and Square Pictures loosely based on the popular Final Fantasy video game series. The movie has the distinction of being the first photorealistic computer animated feature film and the most expensive video game based film ever made. Early in the production of the film (then titled Final Fantasy The Movie), Sony solicited movie...

Tales from the Hood

Tales from the Hood was described by the client as a "hip-hop horror anthology" movie. The film features four short stories, bridged with a story of drug dealers buying drugs from an eccentric funeral director. Before any movie poster art or promotional material was created, the client was looking for a logo title design, intended to be used in the film's trailer and movie poster. (Both...

Crash & Burn

Crash & Burn is a television show pilot created by comedian and actor Lance Krall and produced by skateboarding legend Tony Hawk. The comedy centers around the "Crash & Burn stunt team", headed by Lee Majors. (Yes, that Lee Majors.) For this unaired TV pilot, I created the logo for the team and stunt school seen in the show, which appears throughout the pilot on various...

The Brothers McMullen

The Brothers McMullen is a comedy drama film directed, written, produced, and starring Edward Burns. After winning the Grand Jury Prize at the 1995 Sundance Film Festival, the small indie film was picked up for distribution by 20th Century Fox, and was the first film released by it's "arthouse" film division, Fox Searchlight Pictures. As part of that Fox Searchlight Pictures campaign, the film advertising agency...

Palmetto

PALMETTO is a film noir tale against the backdrop of the town of Palmetto, Florida. The movie poster art went through many tweaks along the way, hence the differing elements that fill the layout. The original design was similar to what you see here, but with different head shots, a different small figure, and a more simplified layout. Often in movie poster design, various issues having nothing...

Jackie Chan's First Strike

FIRST STRIKE was the third Jackie Chan film to see a US release. Being a fan, I enjoyed being a part of this campaign, one of several Jackie Chan movies I have worked on including: RUMBLE IN THE BRONX, SUPERCOP, MR. NICE GUY, and RUSH HOUR. The client wanted to depart from the standard "kung fu" action film look in an effort to broaden the international...

Gossip

Stop me if you've seen this before: For the teen thriller GOSSIP, arrange a group of hot young stars faces in a "V" shaped formation, against a black background. This is sometimes referred to as a "SCREAM head lineup" or "Miramax lineup", in reference to the group cast shot layout in film posters for the Miramax SCREAM films. Cynicism aside, there are reasons this layout is common....

American History X

AMERICAN HISTORY X chronicles the life of two brothers, Derek Vinyard (Edward Norton) a powerful and influential neo-Nazi skinhead, and Danny (Edward Furlong), his younger and impressionable brother. For the home video cover art (which at the time included VHS and DVD), the studio wanted to emphasize both brothers, rather than just Norton (as seen in the theatrical one-sheet). Working on video is interesting, because you...

15 Minutes

15 MINUTES follows a NYPD police detective (Robert DeNiro) and a FDNY fire marshal (Ed Burns) as they track two serial killers who videotape their crimes for the television tabloid media. For this one-sheet campaign, the client, New Line Cinema, wanted to integrate the tabloid TV storyline into the film print campaign. This means the film poster needed to evoke the film's media footage plot, not...
