“Twenty-Four by Thirty-Six” Kickstarter Campaign
Twenty-Four by Thirty-Six is now holding a Kickstarter Campaign to raise funds toward travel expenses for the remaining, more remote interviews with artists and gallery owners as well as toward post-production and administrative costs, and licensing fees to create this film documentary. There are multiple levels in which you can pledge to get you posters and shirts. This is a great project and I can’t wait to see this film! Pledge now HERE.
“Twenty-Four by Thirty-Six” is a film that explores the world of movie poster art, past and present; the artists who create it, companies that commission it, galleries that display it, and collectors and fans who hang it.
Beginning with the golden age of movie poster art in the 70’s and 80’s we’ll be interviewing a number of high profile art personalities from that era, including legendary film marketing director, Tony Seiniger, the man behind the inception of the original “Jaws” poster. We’ll be speaking with Andrea Alvin, a long time member of the film marketing community and wife of the late, great John Alvin, creator of such iconic works as the original one-sheets for “Blade Runner”, E.T.”, “Blazing Saddles”, “Gremlins”, and countless more. Placing a special focus on John and his career we’ll ask the question of where traditional illustrated posters disappeared to, and why.
Moving into this decade, we’ve been interviewing and following several modern screenprint artists, in various stages of their careers, through the process of producing illustrated movie poster art and speaking with them about their influences, their challenges, dealing with studios, print houses, and galleries. We’ve conducted interviews with independent print house Skuzzles to pick their brains about why illustrated art is so important to movie fans. We’ve visited Mondo in Austin, Texas to discuss the enormous impact that they’ve had on bringing illustrated film art back into the limelight. We’ll even be profiling some collectors of movie poster art and speaking with them about its importance, how to store it and how to frame it (yep. we’re going so far as to visit a frame manufacturer to get an inside look on custom framing movie art).
To top it all off, we’re putting together a one of a kind gallery show featuring a ton of original posters from some really incredible artists.
It’s a hugely ambitious project, but it’s a story that needs to be told. And we intend to tell the hell out of it.
