Helvetica now screening

Very cool documentary about the Helvetica typeface, many examples of it’s use and perhaps mis-use. Hopefully soon to be seen in a theater near you! (see screenings page). Make sure you preview the trailer!

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 is celebrating its 50th birthday this year) as part of a larger conversation about the way type affects our lives. Helvetica will begin screening at film festivals worldwide starting in March, followed by cinema screenings across the US and Europe, and the DVD release.
