Studio Notes #28
Greetings, Wonderful Folks. Here's issue #28 of Studio Notes—quick bits delivered to you each Friday.

To celebrate their 10th anniversary, The Letterform Archive is putting together a special 10 × 10 for 10 exhibition where they're curating 100 of their "most beloved" graphic art artifacts. Iconic type specimens and ancient examples—I need to get back to San Francisco between the end of the month and October to see this in person.
📽️
An oddly calming yet sad collection of photos of abandoned theaters across America. I don't recall where I saw this linked recently, but thank you to that person.

Drew Struzan: The Man Behind Your Favorite Childhood Movie Posters. The Goonies, Blade Runner, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, etc. Drew's illustrative, painting style defined the way movies were advertised. Iconic! And still copied to this day. (via kottke.org)

This little video of Hollywood actors, Deborah Ann Woll and Jon Bernthal, is maybe the best example of how Dungeons & Dragons works. I haven't played in a very long time, but if Deb is Dungeon Master—count me in.
What are you working on?

I've been working with a local printer on some new tees and hats because...healthy distraction. And they're almost ready! Watch this space for a tariff-free collection dropping soon.
