The Auteurs' Fake Criterion Covers

@ All…

Thanks guys for all the compliments. I had such an inspriation with the Goddard Covers that I just create whatever I can. I like still images, but I like to make a concept that fits the films. I’m a Goddard fan, so I just did the artwork. However my Weekend could be better, but I too like the Alphaville cover — I did the fading E=m2 franction myself.

Sorry to post the same cover twice, but I noticed too late that the text was off-centre. Here’s how it should look:

I dig your artwork Rob; real nice cover designs by everyone. For me, this is yet another hopeful. Something I mixed up for H-G Cluzot’s La Verité – The Truth, and you know what they say about the fury of a woman’s scorned.

As always, great work JB!

This I made some time ago, and I’m not sure why CC didn’t include it to begin with.
Designed to be wedged in the box.

Welcome back Peter! Loved your covers – The Big Lebowski is probably my all-time favorite.

Thanks, Strummerfan :D I’ve been cheating on you guys – got caught up in some other graphic-art projects, channeling creativity in other worlds.

Very cool, Peter. I was definitely hoping you hadn’t left us forever! With your obvious talent, it’s good to hear that you do more than post covers on this board. :) Hopefully that’s a paying job for you!

Ohhh, Robert. I do indeed like your Criterion version of Phantom of the Paradise! Incorporating the Swan logo is great!
