The Auteurs' Fake Criterion Covers
LOVE the Buffalo 66!
Jamie, those are all pretty spectacular. nicely done. especially the buffalo 66. keep it up.
I would get rid of the cast and crew members at the bottom (except for the director) and put the tagline on the back.
I’m a little rusty with Photoshop, but it’s coming back to me as a tweak around more. Here’s a modified and finished Blood and Black Lace.
Also here’s The Girl Who Knew Too Much.
Guess I’m on an Italian horror kick.
And something I’ve always wanted someone to release; Criterion would do it wonderful justice.
@ mike, david: thanks guys, appreciate it
Some old favorites.
Buffalo 66 looks great! Thanks!!
Here’s my new one. I tried to follow the essential style guide of the original theatrical posters in this composite image: basically, a melancholy image paired with some sort of distant image of Tokyo. Also, there’s a VERY subtle title treatment to augment the lost in translation theme.
This is addictive.
This is fueling my insomnia.
Giving it another shot…
This is just too fun.
I keep coming back to horror it seems.
For a little change of pace.
I wish I was knowledgeable as to the full extent of using Photoshop, I feel somewhat limited, but it hasn’t stopped me obviously.
Oops, horror again.
German expressionism time.
Too bad this film is out of print in region 1. Someone should definitely release it.
And.
And another. Special request from a friend.
How would you feel if you walked into the store and saw this…?
Paste Magazine likes your work!

The lovable Tramp.
This next one pretty much just like an old VHS cover, but it just looks really nice.
I’ve never fallen in love with this film, but I know many hold it in high regard.
This painting is by an amazing artist named Sandra Frazier. I think it was made to be on a cover like this.
*Correction, I forgot an “l” in Lillian.
And.
House of Leaves
Sure. I saw Ice Pirates when it was in theaters. “Space herpes.”
