You guys all have Sam Smith's blog bookmarked by now, right? So you don't need me to tell you about his awesome process posts, like this one for Solaris? I didn't think so.
You didn't have to tell me, but I loved seeing you pick out your favorite also-ran.
I was struck by how many of the other ones reminded me of album covers from various genres and decades - no surprise that Smith works on so many tour posters. However, the final product is purely cinematic and truly beautiful.
Thanks Eric... I knew you liked that design! I ended up kinda turning that concept into a different piece, here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/samsmyth/5351718831/in/set-72157626774876172
I'm a Brooklyn-based graphic designer, mostly making DVDs at my day job with The Criterion Collection, though I try my hand at books and such occasionally.
