    Like all Criterion covers, Astra Zero's beautiful Querelle artwork was created by a 100% human artist. No AI has been used in this, or any, Criterion design. We remain committed to the talent and creativity of the illustration community.

    Hi! I'm looking to expand my rolodex of storyboard artists. Particularly interested in expressive/loose/unexpected stylists and artists versed in classic/arthouse film grammar. Portfolio links will be greatly appreciated!

    As the designer of that package, I think it's now fair to tell people that I've had my work adapted into a @rianjohnson film, right?

    I'm not really on Twitter anymore but I am stuck in the hospital with COVID and could use some pick-me-up vibes in anyone has 'em.

    Rob Jones & the crew at Mondo not only made great posters, they changed the course of movie poster design in the 21st century like no one else. It’s the end of an era. I’m excited to see whatever they do next.

    For anyone impressed by Elizabeth Warren tonight, here’s a thread on why I think she’s the right candidate for this moment.

    P.S. I'm now officially home and on the mend, easing back into things. I'm sure I owe you all emails. ;)

    I'm particularly proud of this set and can't wait for folks to get a chance to see it in person. It's one of those where the physicality of the box really adds something, I think.

    There's a 2-second camera zoom in Flavor of Green Tea over rice and I swear to God all of us in the Criterion screening room that day gasped in excitement.
