This is the album cover for the "Roman Rendezvous" soundtrack LP, released in 1966. With just about a week left to finish laying out the book, I'm getting a bit weary, but seeing stuff like the art from my friends below really keeps me going!

In the wave of popularity from the Yuki 7 movies, Ms. Suzuki was in high demand as a spokesperson for numerous ad campaigns. Some of these include her ad for Sakura Swimwear, a line of swimsuits by Yuki 7 costume designer Dan Tanaka, as well as an ad in 1966 for Air Paris.

This is Yuki's secret underground headquarters, where she works as a freelance spy. She previously worked for the French organization F.O.X.Y. until she uncovered a chain of corruption that led to an unpleasant parting of ways.
Also, check out this authentic Kimiko Suzuki autograph!

And finally I updated this old piece from last year, which I did before I even knew what Yuki's name was, to reflect her finished design.

I tried to come up with a unique poster style for each regional release of the Yuki 7 movies, and the French posters were inspired by an exhibition I saw while I was in London about street posters from the Paris rebellion of 1968, as well as a bit of Saul Bass. A big thanks to Stephane Coedel for the translation!
The Yuki 7 book is coming along very well, and I've got a little less than one month til my deadline so it's back to work! |
