American Psycho (2000) with Tom Muller
Episode 28
Friday, 29 November, 2024
Tom Muller comes back to the show to discuss Mary Harron's American Psycho, released in 2000 and based on the 1991 book by Bret Easton Ellis. Christian Bale stars as Patrick Bateman, a New York City investment banker who's an unreliable narrator with a psychopathic alter-ego, and lives out violent fantasies that spill from his personal life onto his work life.-Tom's an award-winning designer and creative director at helloMuller, and has made an impact on the cultural landscape with narrative-driven design and brand storytelling, creating compelling identities and experiences. I was first introduced to Tom's work in 2018 with The Weatherman, a dark, apocalyptic comic book series from writer Jody LeHeup and artist Nathan Fox, published by Image Comics. The co-creators brought in veteran designer Tom Muller for title type, cover, and layout. Tom's work on The Weatherman is bold and colorful, grabbing the attention of any passersby. You can't avoid the book, and the whole reading experience is mind-blowing.-Tom's radical and visionary re-design for Marvel's X-Men identity, a new visual language that included wordmarks and typography, helped launch 2019's groundbreaking HOUSE OF X and POWERS OF X. He's also designed for entertainment giants DC and Disney, tech pioneers like Google and Gearbox Software, as well as Wired magazine, Skydance New Media, and Wizards of the Coast.-Learn more about Tomhttps://www.hellomuller.com/https://www.instagram.com/hellomuller/https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/tom-muller-designing-evolution-x-logo/https://www.thepopverse.com/marvel-house-of-x-designer-tom-muller-x-men-logo-redesign/https://www.printmag.com/comics-animation-design/behind-design-the-weatherman/https://imagecomics.com/comics/series/the-weatherman/-American Psychohttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt0144084/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0144084/locations/https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0254735/-Business Card Holdershttps://www.muji.us/collections/card-holders-Robert Longo and American Psychohttps://news.artnet.com/art-world/as-seen-on-american-psycho-robert-longo-2434409
