Syd Mead
Sydney Jay Mead (July 18, 1933 - December 30, 2019) was an American industrial designer and neo-futurist concept artist, widely known for his designs for science-fiction films such as Blade Runner, Aliens and Tron. Mead has been described as "the artist who illustrates the future" and "one of the most influential concept artists and industrial designers of our time."
Mead was born on July 18, 1933, in Saint Paul, Minnesota. His father was a Baptist minister, who read him pulp magazines, such as Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon, sparking his interest in science fiction. Mead was skilled in drawing at a young age. According to Mead, "by the time I was in high school I could draw the human figure, I could draw animals, and I had a sense of shading to show shape. I was really quite accomplished at that point with brush technique and so-forth." He described himself as being an "insular child." Mead graduated from high school in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 1951. After serving a three-year enlistment in the U.S. Army, Mead attended the Art Center School in Los Angeles (now the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena), where he graduated in June 1959.
In 1959, Mead was recruited to Ford Motor Company's Advanced Styling Studio by Elwood Engel. From 1960 to 1961, Mead worked in Ford Motor Company Styling in Detroit, Michigan. Mead left Ford after two years to illustrate books and catalogues for companies including United States Steel, Celanese, Allis-Chalmers and Atlas Cement. In 1970, he launched Syd Mead, Inc. in Detroit with clients including Philips Electronics.
With his own company in the 1970s, Mead spent about a third of his time in Europe, primarily to provide designs and illustrations for Philips, and he continued to work for international clients. Through the 1970s and 1980s, Mead and his company provided architectural renderings, both interior and exterior, for clients including Intercontinental Hotels, 3D International, Harwood Taylor & Associates, Don Ghia, Gresham & Smith and Philip Koether Architects.
Beginning in 1983, Mead developed working relationships with Sony, Minolta, Dentsu, Dyflex, Tiger Corporation, Seibu, Mitsukoshi, Bandai, NHK and Honda.
Mead's one-man shows began in 1973 with an exhibit at documenta 6 in Kassel, West Germany. His work was later exhibited in Japan, Italy, California and Spain. In 1983, Mead was invited by Chrysler Corporation to be a guest speaker to its design staff. He created a series of slides to provide visuals to the lecture, and the resulting presentation was a success. It was later expanded and enhanced with computer-generated images specifically created at the requests of several clients, including Disney, Carnegie Mellon University, Purdue University, Pratt Institute and the Society of Illustrators. In March 2010, Mead completed a four-city tour of Australia.
In 1993, a digital gallery consisting of 50 examples of his art with interface screens designed by him became one of the first CD-ROMs released in Japan. In 2004, Mead co-operated with Gnomon School of Visual Effects to produce a four-volume "how-to" DVD series titled Techniques of Syd Mead.
In 2018, Mead published his autobiography, titled A Future Remembered. Regarding his work, Mead said, "the idea supersedes technique," and that "I've called science fiction 'reality ahead of schedule.'"
Mead worked with major studios on the feature films: Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Blade Runner, Tron, 2010, Short Circuit, Aliens, The Spirit of '76, Timecop, Johnny Mnemonic, Mission: Impossible III, Elysium, Tomorrowland and Blade Runner 2049. George Lucas created the AT-AT for his Star Wars saga based on art by Mead. Mead also contributed to the Japanese film Solar Crisis. In the 1990s, Mead supplied designs for two Japanese anime series, Turn A Gundam and the unfinished Yamato 2520.
In May 2007, he completed work on a documentary of his career with the director Joaquin Montalvan entitled Visual Futurist:The Art & Life of Syd Mead. The short 2008 documentary film 2019: A Future Imagined, also explored his works. Mead also appears in movie documentaries such as Dangerous Days: Making Blade Runner and Mark Kermode's On the Edge of Blade Runner, and promotional materials such as the DVD extra for Aliens and a promotional short film about the making of 2010.
Mead was in a personal relationship with partner Roger Servick; the couple married in 2016. They established a publishing extension, OBLAGON, Inc., in Hollywood and relocated in 1998 to Pasadena, California, where Mead continued to work.
On December 30, 2019, Mead died in his Pasadena home at age 86, after three years of lymphoma. Shortly after his death, tributes to Mead's life were posted on Twitter.

We ain’t gonna get it. We’ll be driving combustion engine out-dated jallopies for mother century so your masters can make their last billions and start wars. Those pictures show what we don’t have in our real world: United effort, progressive minded, egalitarian, willingness to work for something better that can be better for everyone; in short, a world we share. This is what sci fi dreamed of from the 60’s to the mid-late 80’s....then...it vaporized. Sci fi today is all about war. Unrealistic bug aliens want to steal our water and resources, space is bad/space is evil/everything in space wants to exterminate us - hmmm....just like what the human race has been doing worldwide since the 1400’s. Sadly, this is all a pipe dream now. There used to be actual science in science fiction.

You can see his influence everywhere, he has changed this world in some small but significant way.
As a 60s & 70s kid Syd’s art blew my mind - especially the cars (which admittedly some look dated now) and the cool genetically engineered (or alien?) animals. Like everyone else is commenting, this is the future I expected and feel sad I didn’t get. But his art was intended to inspire, not predict, and it is still perfectly successful for that.
We can only hope to be graced by someone as talented and visionary as Syd again in our lifetime. But something tells me we'll never quite get there. Thanks for the hope and optimism, Syd.

I got to do work for Syd just before His passing, in fact I spoke with Roger today. I love Syd, his work is fantastic He was a very personable guy and a true treasure.
Beautiful art and music. I love how almost every painting has a few people conversing in the background. It evokes the same weird feelings as the painting 'Nighthawks' , that eerie familiarity, like you've been there before, spoken with those people.
Just discovered this channel, one of the few times I can actually feel gratitude towards the KZread algorithm!
Syd Mead was such a wonderful influence, inspiration in my desire to become a designer. When I was about 12 years old(1980) I began to draw, especially cars. So, when I first saw some of Syd's work I was awe struck! The futuristic scenes, the way people were dressed, the cars, the creativity that left so much to my imagination... The work he did for Blade Runner! So beautiful! Now, almost 40 years later his vision of the future seems dated... Not completely but I wonder if he imagined cell phone use, touch screen devices..? The structures and cities are still very futuristic. The outfits, costumes, and clothes people are wearing very interesting... As for today, what is being designed and built in the way of cars today in reality are very much in the spirit and seemingly more advanced than the cars Mr. Mead thought of decades ago... Also, I especially love the representation of "glow" in the images in a dark section where a screen is projecting on someone...
Damn, I wish his future (our present day) actually looked like this.

I didn’t realize the greatness of Syd Mead until I was visiting the set of Demolition Man at Warner Brothers - while he didn’t work on that one we snuck into the empty office of the production designer who had these big and amazing Syd Mead picture books we couldn’t stop looking through.

A true Visionary , RIP Sir
Syd Mead's participation as the designer of the futuristic city in Blade Runner gave the film a unique character an avant-garde vision of how our society can become in a short time ...
Syd Mead, at his best and most optimistic, ilkustrated the future you WANTEDto see yourself in, a future of beautiful machines, gorgeous and pleasingly striking buildings, stylish clothing and a bright future where, even as a pedestrian on your way to work, you imagined that you would have the occasional moment in which you would glance up and be suddenly struck by how aesthetically pleasing your world is . . . . . . As a teenager in the 70's and early 80's, heavily into Sci Fi and imagining the great leaps we would make in the next 40 years because we had recently been on the Moon, Syd Mead was the future i yearned for and Foss was the future i wanted to live in and work in . . . . . . . . I live in a constant state of dissapointment with a profound feeling of betrayal.
I loved seeing Syd's work many times as a child but honestly never knew his name until today. Can we all agree that Syd's vision of the future was one where ADULTS took their age seriously and worked TOGETHER to build a healthier, cleaner, more enlightened society (generally). It was not a future where the ADULTS fight to be the most unhealthy (fast food dependence and ambivalence toward morbid obesity), exhibit ignorant overpolution and waste of resources in their general living area and the planet as a whole, and saturate their meager intellectual abilities debating "child-topics" like which Avenger is really the strongest or what the Kardashians are up to this week? Let's face it folks, the "future" didn't turn out the way we wanted because we waited for someone to make it this way FOR us instead of creating our future for ourselves :(
Syd Mead has always been one of my all time favorite futurist artists! His imagination and artwork has always amazed me!
