Saul Bass

Saul Bass, who died in 1996, would have celebrated his 93rd birthday today. 

Google have made a tribute in the form of an animated sequence based on his designs for fim title credits, film posters and corporate logos. 

We particularly enjoyed the blog The Fox Is Black's tribute after a recent visit to the Stanley Kubrick exhibition in Los Angeles. Great to see the preliminary sketches of the film poster for the film, The Shining as well as his signature...

Here are some of our favourite of his film posters...
