Sam Smith is one of my favorite designers and an all around great guy. Living in Nashville he produces many posters for the independent theatre The Belcourt. I’m always impressed with Sam’s ability to use simple shapes and warm colors. His art is anachronistic, moving and always makes me take a second look. Check out more work on his website and don’t forget to take a look at the numerous covers and packages he has created for The Criterion Collection.

    Great posters!Creative work..But I think Poster Printing(Clubink at Toronto) is as important as Poster designing.Even a beautifully designed poster can look awful is the printing quality and material is poor!
