This has allowed Milan-based graphic designer Matteo Civaschi to isolate the very essence of movie plots, eliminating the superfluous and focusing on the essential. For example, two white triangles perpendicular to a red field suffice to evoke \u003ci\u003eDracula\u003c\/i\u003e. But even complex or lengthy plots can be reduced to this language, as the inclusion of TV series from \u003ci\u003eGame of Thrones\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eBreaking Bad\u003c\/i\u003e attests. This book serves as a great gift for cinephiles, comedy fans and graphic designers alike. \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 12.9 x 9.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 19, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51769700843808,"sku":"9788857239675","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/d907239f2470917e42fe160a9cab0049.webp?v=1780353938","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/minimal-film-the-cinematic-world-reimagined-through-graphic-design-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
