Credits & Title Design - Call Me Queen

Handwriting title sequences for "Call Me Queen" by Emily Atef - Adapted from Lara Santoro’s 2007 novel Mercy, the film depicts a friendship between an Irish journalist in Kenya and a Rwandan woman, who pair up to combat the AIDS crisis in the 1990s.

For this project, the idea was to create end credits that would directly reflect the film’s central theme: protest and collective action. I hand-lettered the name of each person featured in the credits, using a marker-on-tracing-paper technique inspired by the look of protest signs. These handwritten elements were then layered over scanned pieces of cardboard to reinforce the handmade, demonstrative aesthetic.

Throughout the sequence, short excerpts of protest footage occasionally appear between the names, bringing movement and energy to the signs while maintaining a strong connection to the film’s subject matter.

In terms of color, I drew inspiration both from the palette already present in the film and from traditional Kenyan textiles, particularly kanga fabrics, whose vibrant colors and visual richness helped shape the overall atmosphere of the credits.

Paul Signac and Neo-Impressionism: Symphony of Colors

Created to promote Museum Barberini’s exhibition Paul Signac and Neo-Impressionism: Symphony of Colors, this trailer draws inspiration from one of the movement’s defining visual elements: the colored dot. Through motion and edit, these points become the central language of the film, echoing the artists’ distinctive painting techniques.

I was responsible for the entire project, from concept development and art direction to animation, compositing, and title design.

The soundtrack was produced by Berlin-based techno artist Efdemin, who creates the museum’s annual campaign track.

The trailer was designed for both cinema and digital distribution.

Credits & Title Design - Schöne Seelen

Designing title sequences for new Tom Schreiber's film - "Schöne Seelen" - Summer 1996: The eternally youthful day laborer Freddy has had enough of life in bleak Germany and wants to start a new, relaxed life in a Spanish holiday resort. At first, he truly believes he has found paradise, but before the first season is even over, Freddy becomes the central figure in the grotesque collapse of the community of dropouts.

The concept behind these graphic sequences was to recreate the behavior of neon signage, with the letters lighting up to reveal new names and information. To enhance the analogue quality of the visuals, I customized each character individually and created multiple variations of every letter, allowing subtle imperfections to appear throughout the text, much like those found in real neon signs.

Graphic sequences & archives - The Loom

Graphic design and motion typography sequences for The Loom, a film directed by Helene Kval. The project involved designing and animating graphic sequences that introduce key names and information throughout the film. The Loom tells the story of a woman who kills her four daughters, her mother, and herself. Decades later, the discovery of a child’s loom breaks the silence surrounding the use of women’s bodies as battlefields of war.

For this project, we worked with a large collection of archival materials, including sketches, documents, videos, and photographs. Our role was to sort, curate, and visually reinterpret these assets, transforming them into engaging visual content that could effectively support and enrich the film’s narrative.
