Pasteup work being doing before computers.

Letraset Dry Transfer Paper Sketch

Process

The opening scene shows a hand using Letraset, an old way of transferring letters onto a page, revealing the film’s title. We also pulled from archival imagery to create a sort of collage look for the remainder of the opening, showing actual tools and machines used.

For the inforaphics we used hand drawings to tie in the manual way things are done. Most of these processes were involved and needed to be made digestible, so we broke them up in between talking head interviews.
