The Conqueror: Hollywood Fallout

Alongside the title design, we created a series of graphic sequences and infographics for the documentary, which uncovers the story behind what is arguably the worst “blockbuster” ever made. Adding a tragic dimension, the film was shot near Nevada’s nuclear test sites—an unfortunate choice that led to devastating consequences for many involved, and ultimately exposed an even larger story.

​

To reflect the era of the original production, we adopted a mid-century aesthetic with a restrained, tertiary colour palette. The end credit sequence uses pages from the comic book that accompanied the film upon its original release.
