What would have Star Wars' opening credits been like if they were designed by Saul Bass?
I've been really in to well-designed film title sequences lately (you can read more about that here) and I really like this reimagining of the opening sequence of Star Wars, as they might have been designed by Saul Bass. In case you're not familiar with his work, Bass was a well-known graphic designer famous for creating the opening title sequences of movies like Psycho, Alien, and Cape Fear and was the first person to really elevate titles sequences to an art form.
If you want to learn more about his work, Erin Lang has put together a nice overview of some of Saul Bass' best work on her blog.
