Celebrated For You: The Birthdays of Hollywood Directors

Food artist and photographer Henry Hargreaves teamed up with set designer and installation artist Nicole Heffron for a year-long birthday project. And not just any birthday, either. Each month is about the birthday of a Hollywood filmmaker with an avid fanbase. The idea is that when obsessive fans stage a celebration for their favorite director, they incorporate themes and motifs from that director’s films. So each celebration includes a birthday cake or other dessert in a tableau that illustrates the filmmaker’s style and accomplishments.

You will be able to pick at least some of them by the picture alone, but if not, the captions are underneath in movie poster-style credits.  

And here’s a video that explains the project a little more.
