Monomyth

Student Work

Time: May 2011
Scope: Visual System
Role: Designer

Monomyth is a look at the parallel, overlapping narratives found in science fiction movies. This book is the result of combining the plot lines of some of my favorite films, and the imagery weaves together multiple shapes and colors accordingly. The movies I chose to include were sci fi films from the 70s and 80s, so I wanted to use a color-palette that reminded me of the artwork I used to see as a kid. Nowadays, science fiction artwork tends to stick to cooler palettes of blacks and blues, but growing up I remember oranges, reds, and purples.
