Glaser’s eye-catching poster urging film students to submit work to the 3rd National Student Film Festival in 1968, intended to be hung in colleges and film schools around the country, incorporates characteristically sophisticated references to film culture and history. The two illustrated mouths articulating the vowel sounds for “CA” and “LL” are perhaps most immediately reminiscent (to film buffs, anyway) of the pronunciation charts presented to Gene Kelly’s movie star character by his vocal coach in the 1952 musical Singin’ in the Rain (similar outsize, expressive mouths often feature in Glaser’s work in general too) while the margins of the composition feature marks suggesting the perforations on a film strip. This film festival was held at UCLA in January 1968, followed by an East Coast screening at the New School in New York in April of that year; some consider it the birthplace of the “New Hollywood,” launching the careers of George Lucas and John Milius; it was also the event at which Lucas met his future collaborator Steven Spielberg.
