Project Details
The film follows an international arts collective called the Artnauts across the globe to exhibit in war-torn and politically charged areas. The central goal of the collective is to bring the world together through art making, encouraging dialogue, and amplifying the voices of artists in areas where the arts are underfunded. Filmmaker Annie Eastman followed the collective for five years making the film.
Queue House was brought in to build the world around the film and to support the rollout, including the poster, social graphics & all additional assets both digital and print, including custom motion for the trailer & more.
Immediately, we started building the visual through-line around a 3-dimensional origami shape called an icosahedron, a globe made up of several triangular faces, each face representing the connection of an individual voice or piece of art to adjacent faces and the globe as a whole.
The letterforms and the icosahedron were drawn before anything was finished. The studies set the type and the triangular face. Each face holds one piece of work, and neighboring faces meet so a single voice stays tied to the whole.
From there the system left the studio. The same type and triangles went into the title sequence, a guide for building the icosahedron, a bus bench, and the site.
