Saul Bass - Film Title Sequences


Saul Bass, most famous for his work on corporate logos, posters but particularly his innovative work on title sequences for films such as The Man with the Golden Arm, North by Northwest and Psycho. Before the 1950’s, title sequences were generally static and separate from the movie but Bass decided to try to visualise what the movie was about and evoke the essence of the story with his titles. This is something I would like to create for readers who read on screen, an introductory piece of text to set the mood or the theme of the text to follow.
