We just learned of the passing of the great multidisciplinary creative media designer, author and filmmaker – Hillman Curtis. After a long battle with colon cancer, Hillman Curtis passed on April 18, 2012. He was inimitable boundary pusher and an inspiration to many in the design and film industries.

You can admire his portfolio of work on his personal website. This is his last film (a self portrait):

“He was an inspiration who set his own rules & experimented. He blurred the line between mediums, discarded formula and was a independent thinker. He opened the gates to encourage what Thrash Lab’s philosophy is and will become.” – David Vegezzi (Thrash Lab’s Creative Director and colleague of Hillman) -
