The Visible Oscar.
Tomorrow marks the conclusion of the 38th Boston Science Fiction Film Festival. Every year the Fest ends with “The ‘Thon,” a 24-hour Science Fiction Movie Marathon that runs from Noon on Sunday to Noon on Monday, and is currently held up the street from me at the lovely Somerville Theater. This will be my 5th (!) marathon, which sounds impressive until you realize that many of the event’s attendees have been doing this every damn year since the mid-70’s.
In 2010 and 2011 I did the logo design for the festival’s merchandise and whatnot, seen above. In the cold light of 2013 there’s a number of things in these designs I’d adjust or fix, but whatever, right?
Listen: if you’re in the area and are nuts enough to attempt this, tickets are still available and you should definitely go. It is a grueling test of will and fortitude, plus also a ton of fun.
blast off.
C-3PO Schematic design, available as a poster or a pack of postcards. Of course there’s an R2 design to accompany him!
Hey P.S., Etsy Giftcards are Live, which means you can ask for one (or give one) for any upcoming holidays. You could use such a gift card at…My Shop!
