Really this book is for anyone into paper props!"As much a love letter to the magic of movie-making as it is a showcase for Atkins herself. She's passionate about the tiny, telling details... and just as passionate about the graft of her craft: there are spreads in her book devoted to everything from her collections of ephemera... to recipes for ageing paper... to top it off, the book opens with a love letter to Atkins herself from none other than Jeff Goldblum."—The Observer DESIGN supplement
I made it, feel free to use it. I printed on a coloured paper, and just had it folded to make the letter x Hope that helps, can add the background if you want to.Does anyone have any HD scans (or PDF, PSD) of the CONFIDENTIAL envelope?
If so please share! (i found this pic of a page from the book of the movie, could be useful to have an HD scan of this)
Thanks guys
wow, you did a beautiful replica!I made it, feel free to use it. I printed on a coloured paper, and just had it folded to make the letter x Hope that helps, can add the background if you want to.
Thanks for the advice, i think i'll buy it!Thought y'all might find this book by Annie Atkins of interest. Atkins made the paper props for this movie, and Chapter Three is loaded with photos. "Fake Love Letters, Forged Telegrams, and Prison Escape Maps: Designing Graphic Props for Filmmaking"
Really this book is for anyone into paper props!
I only meant the yellowish background, to be fair, it doesn't need much guidelines, all you need to do is fold the letter in half and then fold the sides and cut them in an angle shape, and just use a strip of purple paper and glue it around the folds, it's super easy xwow, you did a beautiful replica!
When you talk about "background" are you referring to the guidelines for cutting the envelope? those would surely be useful
thank you so much for sharing!
Oh okay okay, no thank you i don't need itI only meant the yellowish background, to be fair, it doesn't need much guidelines, all you need to do is fold the letter in half and then fold the sides and cut them in an angle shape, and just use a strip of purple paper and glue it around the folds, it's super easy x
You can make card look and feel like leather by spraying it with glycerine and water, wrinkling it up, then doing it again. It really is a phenomenal technique.I kinda looks to be a soft leather to me... Mh, it would be extra trouble I guess haha... I want to give it a shot ^^
