Retro Stills of Moving Pictures

by Nisha | March 1 2010 |

Graphic Designer Travis Coburn recently caught my eye as he was the designer who designed the program covers for the BAFTA Awards(British Academy of Film and Television Arts). He has a uniquely retro design asthetic and a wonderful appreciation of colour, composure and texture. Heres a sample of what he’s did for the BAFTAs. Can you pick the movies nominated for Best Picture from the poster design?

Did you work them all out? Appearing in order: “Up in the Air”, “An Education”, “Hurt Locker”, “Avatar” and “Precious”. Ive seen all of the nominated films except “An Education”, so far my pick for best film is Precious. The story will tear your heart up in little pieces and then tape it back up miraculously. Hurt Locker is also fantastic, Katherine Bigelow is an amazing director! There was one point during this movie that The Husband and I were literally sitting on the edge of the couch with baited breath. Go and see both these films, before the Oscars, if you can. Two thumbs up! For Tavis Coburn too!!
