Saul Bass ..

An american graphic designer , born in may 8 , 1920 in New York city. Studied at the Art Students League in Manhattan. He moved to Los Angeles in his mid twenties to pursue his career in graphic design . 

Saul Bass is one of the designers that his work inspires me a lot , i like the simplicity in his print design and the ideas in his motion graphics . the poster of the man with golden arm and the title sequence is my favorite . Its simple and deliver the massage to the audience is a  simple smart way . 

In general his designs is really amazing both the print designs and the movie animations . He is not only a graphic designer , he is also a film maker .

His most famous logos are AT&T , Continental Airlines and Jet-stream . And for the movie animations the most famous one is for the movie "vertigo" the color he chosen for the movie titles was really strong . He used black , red and white . 

 His movie titles were different than other designers at that time . His movie titles gives you a little introduction about the movie in a simple way , it really attract the audience and make them more interested to watch the movie ..
