Style Frame
Through the use of bleeding ink textures, the ideas of literature and the fine line between reality and fiction are symbolized.
Ink is used to drive the plot of the sequence through its movement. The ink will overtake the screen, consuming the typography, which is representative of Vivienne’s book consuming her psyche.
Colors will be minimal, however, red will be introduced to give a sense of alarm and danger.
