Graphic designer Doaly has cleverly created some magnificent film typography illustrations. Entitled 'Project 26 vol:1' the illustration depicts an entire alphabet that pairs each letter with an iconic film to go along with it. The illustrations primarily use a vector art style and Doaly does a fantastic job balancing his technical abilities with his creative inspiration.
From 'American Beauty' combined with an 'A' layered with rose petals, to 'The Terminator' being a 'T' that has the top portion made using the iconic sunglasses, the entire alphabet is masterfully covered. It's always interesting work like this that gets the mind going, really stimulating people to branch away from the standard and really try to push out new connections. The film typography creations are wonderfully done and really help to create more interest in the often under-appreciated typographic art world.
