This poster is inspired by the Francis Ford Coppola Film The Conversation. The typography evokes a sense of isolation, paranoia and tension by enclosing the film's protagonist, surveillance expert Harry Caul, in tight spaces. To emphasize the raw and dirty world he operates in, the poster is screen printed on craft paper. This poster was featured in CMYK magazine and exhibited at the design museum at U.C. Davis. 2- Disguise 14 Cavan Huang Cavan Huang arranges layers of letterforms to disguise the message of the text.
