_what
poster for the short form TV series, how to be a person.
_how
writer / director sindha agha reached out and asked that we might do a poster for her, then BAFTA nominated, short film E4 TV series how to be a person. it's a funny, brave and confrontational piece of work and we were excited to capture it on paper. we presented a series of ideas and sindha went with the one you see here. liza evseeva did graphic treatment based on a still from the show, and caspar did the type, layout and finishing. 

during the making the poster the show won the BAFTA for best short form TV series, and so we had to swap out the laurels and change the text at the last minute. you can watch the series here.

_what
poster for the documentary, nathan-ism.
_how
producer melanie levy reached out after seeing our work in mubi's best posters of 2022. a feature documentary, that she was working on was on its way to hotdocs film festival and they wanted a poster to mark the occasion. the film was called nathan-ism.

we watched the film and immediately fell in love with its discussion of history, memory, the stories we tell and why, and the nature of truth. pretty soon we were talking to the film's director elan golod and devising ways we could talk about this film in poster format. we presented a range of ideas and ultimately landed on the poster you see here, which was made with a laser printer, some thick paper, a scalpel, a scanner and a camera. 

the film tells the story of nathan hilu a jewish american man who was a prison guard at the nuremberg trials at the end of world war 2. the poster in return talks about the three different nathan's we see in the film - the young nathan, the old nathan and the nathan depicted in the drawings he made in remembrance of his time in nuremberg. the latter nathan, as the poster in part suggests, was a figure whose history was very much influenced by the older nathan's ageing mind.

poster for the feature film, falcon lake.
_how
yellow vale pictures are releasing charlotte le bon's excellent film, falcon lake, in the united states. justin timms at yellow vale reached out to us with an interest in us making a theatrical poster for the film. we presented a range of ideas and charlotte went with the poster you see here.

our approach here is in part an homage to the great work of swedish artists inka and niclas lindergard. it was created by taking a photograph of a light source with grease smeared on the camera lens. the effect was then overlayed on a behind the scenes photograph from the film.
