More Information on Why Man Creates by Saul Bass
We saw the film in class, but I found a bit of background on it that I thought you would find interesting. "Why Man Creates" was created in 1970 for Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation. In this and several other films, Saul was assisted by his wife, Elaine Bass, and she is also listed on the production credits. In addition, the film won an Oscar for Live Action Short.
