Personal Work:

If this is truly the final American crime film by Scorsese, it felt appropriate to tip the hat to his first, and also my favorite design in his amazing career.

We worked with @Panavision to talk about I Love Boosters, the process of getting the big, bold, colors, and why it HAS to be seen on a big screen.

I'm so glad I discovered James' podcast and this episode with Tony Stella specifically, talking about his favorite posters of all time. So much that I relate to, and such a gift to get to know Tony better after he's gone. I have the Hillmann RASHOMON on my wall as well...

BREAKING: Hill County just proved Texans aren’t powerless.

When local people stood up, they hit pause on a 300-acre data center, joining Athens, Killeen, San Marcos, and Wichita Falls in pushing back.

If Hill County can fight back, the rest of Texas can too.

Tony’s last message to me, about a month ago, proudly declaring he’d keep painting analog in the age of AI slop.

I am deeply saddened to share that my Dear friend Tony Stella has passed away.

My thoughts are with his family during this incredibly difficult time.

At the moment, his family is working to gain access to his business and manage next steps.

I will share news as it becomes available.

Thank you for keeping Tony and his loved ones in your thoughts. ❤️

@MarcAspinall Alamo Drafthouse does a curated pre-show custom to each film. Little fun things. Japanese music video parodies with the characters. Ads for McDonalds toys. thematically connected things. Diff assortment every time. Like a short film block of cultural artifacts and ads
