Interview magazine hired us to create an invitation to a special screening they were sponsoring at New York’s French Film Festival. We discussed numerous ways to communicate not just the idea of film, but cinema in its most classic form. The final concept used both a straight-forward representation of the base media married to an homage to the work of the great film title designer Saul Bass. A variety of colors were chosen for the film strips to convey the diverse nature of the French film industry. The purple strip on the left of this cover was continued on the back of the invitation, and the simple, modern typeface utilized on the cover was used inside for the screening information. The magazine reported a huge response, with many compliments on the fresh design of the invitation.
