It is always a privilege to be given latitude for experimentation on a feature film project. I was especially pleased to be invited by Prologue Films to help reach a main title treatment, and to explore various means of elucidating the film’s interlacing timeframes. As a bonus I got to design a very special and distinctive end roller.

Kyle Cooper invited me to develop one of the concepts I had sketched out for the main titles which riffed upon the language of rail network schematics, and to extrapolate it as a memorable end crawl. I did not hold back: I’ve admired Kyle’s work since before my career even began, and was aware that if anybody could help a client to recognise the benefit of departing from the standard end-roller, it was him.

Below is an example of some of the logo designs I originated for the film.
