With Star Trek’s 50th anniversary just a few years away, Titan Books has released Star Trek: The Art of Juan Ortiz, a coffee table book that features a 60s-style retro movie poster for all 80 episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series.
Ortiz is no newcomer to the world of design. He has previously worked as an illustrator/designer for Disney and Warner Bros. and has penciled covers for DC Comics’ Looney Tunes and Tiny Toons magazines. His passion for Star Trek is made clearer with each passing page.
From the Amazon product description:
What if every Star Trek: The Original Series episode was a movie event? What would the movie poster look like? This was the inspiration to develop a one-of-a-kind set of images for the series that launched a franchise. Artist Juan Ortiz has created unique retro-style art with the look of a 60s movie poster, comic book, pulp novel cover or advertisement, one each for all 80 episodes.
