A Futile and Stupid Gesture

ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Created the graphics for “A Futile And Stupid Gesture” including magazine sequences, character intro cards, foto funnies sequences with artist Shane Winter. The film is fantastic and currently available on Netflix.

I had access to the entire archive of National Lampoon magazines. For the character cards, I wanted to emulate the style of some of the art, very graphical and textured. The backgrounds were created from tears from articles and text from the magazines that were special to each character and their individual personality traits.
