I think I just discovered the iPhone app you’ve been waiting for. It’s called Hitchcock and it seems pretty damn cool (although $20 is steep for an app). Take a look and judge for yourself.

And thanks to Wes Craven for turning me on to this.

Danny Yount

Jamie Caliri

Karin Fong

Garson Yu

And without a doubt the most recognized name in title design since Saul Bass helped make Hitchcock that much more memorable, Kyle Cooper

Generally speaking, these guys and gal are much better at letting their work do the talking for them. I couldn’t believe one designer brought in a PowerPoint presentation called “What is Art” but easily it was Kyle’s “brain map” that stole the show. It was so intricate It’s almost impossible to describe but here I go: imagine a beautifully designed brainstorming session (you know, the kind you map out with bubbles and lines on a whiteboard) and then imagine that that every bit of text was a hyperlink that opened up another series of links. Yeah, the audience gasped when we realized just how deep we were going into Kyle’s mind. Guess that’s why he’s the unquestioned genius of his medium.
