Saul Bass (May 8, 1920 – April 25, 1996) was a graphic designer and filmmaker, perhaps best known for his design of film posters and motion picture title sequences.

During his 40-year career Bass worked for some of Hollywood's greatest filmmakers, including Alfred Hitchcock, Otto Preminger, Billy Wilder, Stanley Kubrick and Martin Scorsese.

Financial Building[1] in Hitchcock's North by Northwest, and the disjointed text that races together and apart in Psycho.

“I want to make beautiful things, even if nobody cares.”
Saul Bass

“Design is thinking made visual”
Saul Bass

“Where do ideas come from? From looking at one thing, and seeing another. From fooling around, from playing with possibilities, from speculating, from changing, pushing, pulling, transforming, and if you’re lucky, you come up with something worth saving, using, and building on. That’s where the game stops and the work begins.”
~ Short Film: Why Man Creates”
