poster for the feature film, way out ahead of us.
_how
jordan mattos introduced us to rob rice and his beautiful film, way out ahead of us. the film follows a man who is keeping his terminal illness a secret from his daughter so he doesn’t spoil her plans to move to the city. the actor who plays the father has this illness in real life. he and his wife, who plays the mom, have been married for 25 years and have raised each other's kids from previous relationships together, but have never had a child of their own. in the film an actress was cast to play the daughter they never had, but always dreamed of.

rob and caspar hit the ground running. immediately the conversation turned to how they could make a poster together, remotely, between los angeles and london, using all the original props from the film.

the final poster takes the form of a still life photograph inspired in part by 17th century spanish still life paintings. in the background of the photograph rob is making a light painting using one of the flares from the glass bowl. the light painting was an off the cuff gesture that almost by accident captured the very essence of the film.
