Those Eyes
Prepare to be psychologically thrilled
Mind-bending
Dissociative
Grand
Anxious
Emblematic
Designing for a film was on our “first-year-in-business” bucket list. When Evan Harris reached out to us about his directorial debut for a psychological thriller, we were ecstatic.
Those Eyes follows Steven as he is chased through doors into different worlds by a figure with glowing red eyes. It was important for us to bring the abrupt, forceful clashing of these realities together in a cohesive way through the visuals.
Physical collage was the perfect way to represent jolty interruptions between the different tones and environments in the film and it provides grittiness to the thriller genre. Those Eyes was made completely with practical effects, so the graphics are made practically as well.

We worked with shots from Those Eyes to create a custom image treatment that unifies the different worlds and brings forward their intense colors.
Each typeface represents a unique tone from the movie. Just like in the film, they are most dynamic when used in combination.
Those Eyes is simultaneously a love letter to iconic avant-garde films, a showcase piece for the filmmakers, and a symbolic story for the human experience.
