Iconic Title Designers: Saul Bass

Saul Bass was a graphic designer who became known as somewhat of a founding father of the movie title sequence. He had a unique geometric style with crisp shapes (often created out of paper) that logically came together into a balanced composition. The style was very minimal, yet modern. Simple, yet sophisticated. 
Over the course of his 40 year career he designed for high profile directors such as Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, and Martin Scorsese.
Here are some of my favorite titles of his and some of his most famous body of work.
