Artist Reasearch - Saul Bass

File:SaulBassLogos.jpg

Saul Bass is well known for his graphics in films, most noticably Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo and North by Northwest.

Saul Bass' work seems to only consist of two or three colours, this therefore creates a silhouetted effect to the different shapes that he uses in his work. In the instant of Vertigo Saul Bass uses shape which in itself creates a feeling of vertigo and if you watch the opening credits of Vertigo the way the shapes rotate make the user veel dizzy and high up.

I like Saul Bass' work as he uses simple lines and shapes and uses them to create a dramatic feel to he work and his work has remained iconic in film history.
