My One & Only
Done in: 2008 / Customer: “My One & Only” Film / Task: Graphic Design within scenes.
What the client needed
My One and Only is a 2009 comedy-drama loosely based on a story about George Hamilton’s early life on the road with his mother and brother, featuring anecdotes that Hamilton had told to producer Robert Kosberg and Merv Griffin. It starred Logan Lerman and Renée Zellweger and was filmed in Maryland.
My part of the project
Most film graphics work involves signage and product wrapping for scenes, and that was certainly the case here. An entire paint store with every sign and every paint container had to be designed to use a faux paint company name. Sometimes even a famous book cover design can’t be cleared so a new one, and a new imaginary publishing house logo, all need to be designed. The movie was set in 1953 and the look and feel of all my work for it reflects either that, or in many cases, an earlier period.
