The (Pink) West Coast

Movie poster designs typically follow certain formulas... but when your film is all about design, things get a little more interesting...

I love these posters for the upcoming documentary Coast Modern, a film about West Coast Modernist Architecture, from LA to Vancouver.

This is the kind of poster I'd want up in my home as artwork, not just as a movie promo. (Actually, they're selling a limited run of 100 right now... but are a bit too pricey for me!)

The other poster is also lovely (and less pink).

Learn more about the Coast Modern film, watch a trailer, or buy a poster in the shop.

Handmade Nation Returns to Vancouver

If you missed the debut screening of Handmade Nation in Vancouver last summer, you're now in luck! The Museum of Vancouver will be showing the film on Friday, March 19th at 7pm.



Not only is this a great film, this screening will also feature a panel of speakers from the Vancouver craft scene: Kim of CrochetMe.com, Rob of Got Craft? and Erin of Collage Collage.For more info and to buy tickets, visit the MOV website.

If you haven't seen it already, watch the trailer for Handmade Nation - and check out the book.

The screening last summer was a ton of fun - not only because the documentary was great - but also because it was an amazing feeling to have so many crafty people in one room at once.
