Re: Fake Criterion Covers
I get what you're going for, but the cover doesn't look quite right, it almost resembles more of a postcard. Maybe a two-part image would work better? The film is very kinetic and that doesn't quite get the basic mood of it across.

Got lazy on the back cover (I can't modify the template text without paying $60 to Hoefler & Frere-Jones for the font).

Re: Fake Criterion Covers
Now those are truly inspirational fake covers! The extra features show some very dark humour - my favourite kind!

Thumbs up, that's dedication to the spirit of the premise! One small caveat: no FAKE spine numbers!

Here's another CC Wishman so you can re-wrap your SWV release.

Re: Fake Criterion Covers
All the extras are straight from the SWV release.
I just get a chuckle from using the Chris Marker cover as the basis.

More experiments with turning things that aren't DVD covers into DVD covers:
Though I just realized that I may have subconsciously stolen the idea from the posters for David Fincher's latest.
