I thought it was going to be about the singer but it turns out it was someone much much better. Thanks Criterion! and don't forget. Please have your service be available in the middle east.
I did a serious Maltese Falcon poster, after bring completely dismayed over all the U.S. posters. A couple foreign jobs are ok. I projected the film and then selected frame areas to photograph, then built a 27x41 poster, also including all the national screen service text and blue cross guides that you can see on othet posters from the era. I bought a Maltese repro bird, and gave it dramatic lighting with beams coming off it leading to the various images I chose to surround it. But faces above this central motif looked down to it, and faces below looked up to it. I added an author graphic with a typewriter in the bird's shadow. Fortunately I worked at a photo lab, so printing this 300 d.p.i poster cost me nothing. Except the damn framing.
Great work! If you love inspiration some time ago I bought Polish Poster Book (huge, loaded with treasures) " "OTO SZTUKA POLSKIEGO PLAKATU" BY DOROTA-FOLGA JANUSZEWSKA. I KNOW IT WAS AN ENGLISH VERSION AS WELL. GOOD LUCK , LOVE AGATA
Hausu poster hijacked my eyes years ago. That effective simplicity. So there is the man itself! Fine artist.
John Smith we need a reprint - I want it soooo bad

That Hausu poster is iconic in and of itself
Feels like he's created all my favourite covers. Great work Sam!

Love exploring posters !
This is such a good interview with incredible works. I hope film posters, book and album covers remain important as digital media rises.
Great to see who's responsible for these beautiful covers. Is it possible to buy some of them as prints or posters?
I want to know exactly this. Can you message me if you get any answer please ?

We need the Criterion Collection in Germany!
this series is so deeply inspirational to me. thank you.
This was honestly quite beautiful. The Japon cover was really great!
Any place to buy the prints?
Film posters is mainly for illustrators
Nice one, enjoyed this - thanks for sharing
I just bought that Revolucion Cuban Poster Art book based on the few images I saw of it in this video.
hi i love your song "stay with me"!!
I seriously love your work
Love this series!
Why does this dude remind me of Chuck Close circa early 1970s?
Great video. Very informative.
This is so great. Fun mini doc and Sam's work is lovely. Cheers, Steve aka the talking fly
poster designing is definetly fun.
love this series and Sam Smith's work - I do wish they had a mini-doc on the legendary mondo AD Jay Shaw
So many good nuggets in here. Thank you for spreading the good.
Thanks that was fascinating
Are these scribbles a hint that Criterion will release an "OZU" box set?
This was great - Sam, love your work! Fellow Nashvillian here (and an artist!)
Some really great work!
Such good work!
Oh my gosh! I want to do this!
"Studio Visit: Ed Kemper"
See it's seeing things like this that make life that little bit sweeter
Hmm, any tips on where to pick up Sam's posters? Can't really find anything on Ebay...
I love his Jim Ridley shirt.
Does anyone know what program he is using to draw with towards the end of the video? Thank you.
Thanks for this

Why in the hell can't movie posters in the regular theater look JUST A LITTLE like these?????

He must be a good artist. To pull off a string of beads like that!! My chin hit the floor. Not joking.
the man is a visionary!

Great guy even greater art
Beautiful
Lots of love to you
Early work looks a bit like Leslie Herman’s work
@5:04 Ummmmm, does that mean The Master is coming to Criterion?!
I don't think he just does work for Criterion. Looks like he gets commissioned to do work for theaters, festivals, etc. It also seems to be a hobby.
Lmao I thought it was the singer xD

Sam's Myth *
clean your iMac screen
your not the big gay singer
This 'threadless' aesthetic is getting old, throw all of this to 2006 where it belongs.
Jmho dude is not a good artist
What's it like being blind?
This man is uncomfortable to look at
I see crappy art everywhere in this video.
