Design notes

This project required me to visualize the complex and violent relationship of the two main characters without resorting to drama. I eschewed photography in favor of illustration so the focus would be on the relationship—represented by a single continuous line—and not the actors. The type is integrated with the illustration; the A’s and O’s represent both the difference and the similar entanglement of the characters.
