1970's movie poster remade

    My task for this project was to pick a movie from the 1970's or earlier, then use Saul Bass posters as inspiration and modernize it. The movie i chose was Revenge of the Pink Panther. Remaking this was difficult because the original was cartoony and was kinda modern on its own. This is what i came up with.













   Like Saul, I implemented objects that give an idea of what the movie is about. The gun barrel to depict a spy/detective movie, the panther to add the sense of comedy. In the movie poster that Saul Bass created, he add the famous ruby slippers and the yellow brick road. Without words you know exactly what movie it is. While he is significantly better than I am, I think i achieved my goal.

  1. Nice job Ian. I haven't seen the Oz poster before and it really does reveal the understory of the girl's journey. Your design also captures this sense of an adventurous hunt.
