In space, no one can critique your font choice. I reached out to Chris and Dave about the look of science fiction and they agreed to share their thoughts and insights… Chris, along with Nathan Shedroff, has written, Make it So: Interface Design Lessons from Sci-Fi, and Dave’s new book, Typeset in the Future: Typography and Design in Science Fiction Movies, just hit Amazon on December 11. Both gentlemen have books that I highly recommend. Dave Addey is the man behind Typeset in the Future, which looks at typography and design in Science Fiction movies.
Chris runs Sci-Fi Interfaces, where he dives into the design elements of science fiction cinema and television, especially interaction design. Directors like Stanley Kubrick, Ridley Scott and Denis Villeneuve earn our trust because they - and their design teams - create worlds we believe exist.Ĭhris Noessel and Dave Addey are among the foremost chroniclers of science fiction design in film and TV. Details matter and those iconic films, from 2001: A Space Odyssey to more recent efforts like Blade Runner 2049 place their big philosophical and moral questions on a foundation that feels real. Science Fiction, at its best, challenges us and asks us to consider some of the biggest questions: What does it mean to be human? What is our purpose in the universe? Are we alone? But even such lofty philosophical questions can fall flat when delivered in a world that feels like nothing more than a soundstage.
