Bond - The Daniel Craig Collection Part Four: 2006

This collection is a grab bag of ideas, Casino Royale, future Bond films, Halloween spoofs, comic books. These are some of my favorite posters.















Bond - The Daniel Craig Collection Part Three: 2006

As more photo from the set became available it was becoming quite easy for anyone to make a Casino Royale poster. To distinguish my fan art from everyone else I began looking forward to future Bond films. Although Casino Royale was still months away I was having fun with the future. Looking back five years latter these are amusing "What if...?"













These two posters reimagines "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" for the Craig era. 




007 In New York is one of my all time favorite posters. The body is actually that of Pierce Brosnan in front of a green screen for Die Another Day publicity photos. A removed his head and replaced it with Daniel Craig's. I was unable to remove some of the green spill in the original photo so I simply made the poster green as well. It was out quite well and gives the sense of night vision goggles. Tilting the New York city skyline also gives the senses of motion, accentuated with multiple lines, I like to think Bond is hanging out the window of a New York City cab.

Bond - The Daniel Craig Collection Part Two: 2006

This post includes a series of character posters I did for Casino Royale. As these were based on the castinf announcement I had no official photos from the film to draw from. Therefore I had to use photos for the actors from other movies, tv shows, magazines, etc. I perticually like the poster for Caterina Murino as Solange although her character was quite different in the actual film. Immediately after I finished this series of poster official images from the set started to be released and they would find their way into my fan posters.

Video - The Line

Designing fan posters lead me to pursue a career in film making. I currently hold a Bachelor's Degree in Art. My major was Cinematography with a secondary emphasis on graphic design. This film was made in the fall of 2009 while I was still an undergrad. I wrote the script in June and design a simple mock up of the title.


I based the credit sequence, and film poster on this design although I used a different font.


I made a DVD cover to go with the film to give to everybody who contributed in it's making.


The film was shot and edited over a three month period from October to December of 2009. The first showing of the completed film was shown to my film class on the last day of the semester. I entered the film into Austin, TX's "Fantastic Fest" film festival but it did not get in. I uploaded it to YouTube in December of last year, where you can watch it now.
