Why I Like Herb Lubalin's Sound of Music Logo
Interesting fact:
“Rather than accept payment by royalty, Lubalin insisted on a large fee. By doing so, he missed an opportunity to make a great deal of money. The Sound of Music, released in 1965, went on to be one of the most successful movies of all time.”

Three great things about Tim Doyle's Robocop poster
“Murphy’s Frankenstein existence is designed from head to toe to be a Cop who acts on his pre-programmed directives, but who he is comes through regardless- much to the disappointment of his employer/manufacturer. And that’s what I wanted to depict here, the man coming through the machine.”

Why I like Jay Shaw’s Robocop poster
“It makes sense to watch a film and say, ‘the story is about that so this image should communicate that idea well.’ Every idea can be broken down to some base image, it’s just a matter of figuring out what the image is.”
