"Syd Mead, 1933-2019"
 
   Sorry to hear of it... yet I suppose it's fitting that he'd go almost literally on the eve of what used to be "the Future".

(and a month after Blade Runner)

"Remember details, notice how people move, how sunlight cascades over moving objects, why foliage looks the way it does (it's nature's own fractal magic) and how come velvet has about the same range of value as metallic surfaces but one is soft and the other is brittle.

And finally, don't assume that technique alone will save your ass. It still is the idea that wins...every time. Remember that elaborate technique and dumb story produces a demo reel, not a narrative."
