i feel like it could use some yellow and i dont feel like the rv as a moustache really works the way it is, would need a lot of tweaking with angles or i don't know
Doesn't really seem inspired by any of those two. It has text describing the show, which I've never seen in a poster, ever. If you want him in the picture just because Saul has put pictures in his designs you're copying him, not taking inspiration from him. Find out WHY he puts a picture in the design, and why he usually doesn't. "Great artists doesn't copy, they steal", you need to take out the essence and idea of what they are doing, not just copy what you see that they do, but why they do it. The title is completely impossible to read (as in, I can read it but it's frustrating to do so). The blue colour blends into the white so fucking much that it fades away. I also don't understand why BR and BA is in a coloured box, nor do I understand why the kerning between R and E is so huge. I haven't seen the show myself so exactly why the world is breaking and there is a van infront of it I do not know. Though I understand that the whole breaking part of it is in reference to the title. But you should make the van become part of the breaking, because right now it's a completely different element than the world. If you see in both Olly Moss and Saul Bass' work they almost always make their illustrations into one element that creates two or more elements through use of negative and positive space (your world is shaped by positive space, the cracks are made from negative space). They don't make several elements like in a drawing, they make all the elements into one. Composition is good though. Good use of space, and the font is nice and clean.
what is the circular crack meant to represent? i know it's meth, but what else, a moon? i dont think whatever else it is is very clear

If it is a rising sun, then you should lower it so it looks like it's actually coming up from the ground. Right now it's just placed there as a circle that as we've already seen doesn't look like a sun nor a plate but rather the world or a piece of meth.
[QUOTE=dgg;33103015]I also don't understand why BR and BA is in a coloured box, nor do I understand why the kerning between R and E is so huge.[/QUOTE] the kerning's definitely way off, but they're in the boxes because [img]http://abreakingbadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/breaking-bad-season-2.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=kevlar jens;33103179]a rising sun + the broken plate from season 1. the one crazy 8 takes a piece from + chemical smoke going up through the ventilation + walt's innocence going up in pieces ~breaking bad~[/QUOTE] its not at all clear the big chunk missing is smoke its not clear its a rising sun i would work on that

[QUOTE=kevlar jens;33102818]got this school project where im going to create saul bass/olly moss- inspired posters for films and games and tv-shows here's a quick digital mockup of a breaking bad poster im doing [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/CyUu1.png[/IMG] walter or no walter? i see saul bass integrated photos a bit in his work so I thought I'd try it out too[/QUOTE] Would be awesome if the cracks were in the abstracted shape of the structure for methamphetamine It might be nice to see how it'd look to get in the atomic numbers, have the chemical formula boxes the same darker blue colour of the sun and have the lighter blue as an outline around them, to try and better represent the BB title graphic

I also believe most designers would shoot themselves in the head right away or at least close the browser, seeing Helvetica right away.
