Martin Ansin:I think theres always prior art when I get to do a poster.
Taking all into account can be overwhelming.
io9: What are you primarily trying to convey with this piece?
Ansin:Duneis massive.
io9: The composition here, with the title down the left side, is very unique.
Tell me about that decision and the choice of font.
io9: As always, your likenesses are excellent.
Did any of the actors pose any problems?
Ansin:Not at all!
They were super gracious with their time and we only got minimal requests.
io9: Unlike David Lynch, Denis Villeneuve turnedDuneinto two films.
Ansin:I certainly didnt while I designed this one!
