Saul Bass


One of the best filmmakers and graphic designers was Saul Bass. Amongst his most famous title sequences are the animated paper cut-out of a heroin addict's arm for Preminger's The Man With The Golden Arm, the text racing up and down what eventually becomes a high-angle shot of the United Nations building in Alfred Hitchcock's North By Northwest, and the disjointed text that raced together and was pulled apart for Psycho (1960).
