Film advertisements have reached a new level with Frank Miller’s new comic adaptation of The Spirit. Lionsgate has teamed up with nine leading art schools around the nation to create one student-designed ad from each participating school. This series, entitled The Spirit Art School Program, will display the finished works throughout the summer around the schools’ home cities. The program presented the first design from The Art Institute of California-San Diego at the city’s famous Comic-Con convention just recently. The Spirit, which will hit theaters on Christmas Day, follows the story of a cop’s rise from the dead to continue to fight crime while dealing with his arch enemy, the Octupus (Samuel L. Jackson). The film also stars Eva Mendes and Scarlett Johansson.
