This is a poster to a Czech movie from 84. To me this movie is so much part of my early teenage and adolescent years and I always love getting back to it. It is a brilliantly smoky story of young love that is set on the scenery of communist greyness, bars and discos, smoke and mirrors. The ending is not happy.
Not only this movie includes the word "passage" in it's name, it also was part of my passage of growing up.
I decided to design a tribute to this poster and it's atmosphere as my addition to John's book.
Ink Drawing and Photoshop were my tools.
To fit this piece in John's book I cut it into 4 pieces. The final quarter can be unfolded to reveal the whole piece.
Petr, I was so intrigued by the fold out design! At first I thought some of the pages were coming unglued from the sketchbook, but then I realized you had fashioned an mini-poster. The panels leading up to the poster are like a puzzle or code -- I wondered about their order. I especially appreciate the backstory -- who among us doesn't have a film from back in the day which shaped or moved us?
