Film graphic
There’s no getting away from the fact that getting a job in the film industry is still notoriously difficult. A Google search presents very little opportunities, so it appears the film industry is still as much about who you know as what. But don’t let that put you off, there are still ways to get that proverbial foot in the door.
Perhaps one of the most influential movies for graphic design in film in recent times, The Grand Budapest Hotel has countless lessons for graphic designers. Ranging from skill to set design to props, the graphic design in the movie is what made it stand out. However, the most important lesson it has in store for graphic designers is about accepting failure.
“My first job in the UK was work experience on the second Harry Potter film,” says Lima. “Then one week quickly became two, then three, then four, ending in me working for three months on the second film, then full-time from the third Harry Potter movie.”
Renowned prop master for The Grand Budapest Hotel, Robin Miller, had the pink Mendl’s boxes printed from a specialist in Berlin for the movie. Almost every scene in the 1930’s chapter in the film used these boxes in some way. The lettering was done by hand on every single one of these boxes, which is why when Robin Miller wrote the wrong spelling of patisserie on the boxes, no digital spellchecker corrected him.
Graphic designers have to carry out extensive research to create set pieces that are accurate to the time period the film is set in. They are also in charge of all the graphic elements that are outlined in the script.
Here, Mina and Lima share some truly unmissable advice on what it’s like to work in the film industry, how best to get your foot in the door, why (carefully managed) work experience is still very worth it, and what they look for in applicants when they’re recruiting (psst, which they will be very soon for the third Fantastic Beasts movie).
