HELVETICA

HELVETICA is a feature-length independent film about typography, graphic design and global visual culture.

It looks at the proliferation of one typeface (which recently celebrated its 50th birthday in 2007) as part of a larger conversation about the way type affects our lives.

Helvetica is currently screening at film festivals, museums, design conferences, and cinemas worldwide, and is now available on DVD.

[I just picked up a copy on DVD. This documentary is a great into to the thought process behind type design. Not only is it good for the creative soul, every edit suite should have a copy for instant kinship with Art Directors.]
