Danse Macabre

This (fictional) project was a typography exercise to create a promotional video for Martin Zimmerman’s play « Danse Macabre ». I opted for a literal approach, inspired by the title. So I designed a macabre typography based on bones, animated on AfterEffects for a « macabre » feel. Each letter has been crafted from skeletal elements, offering a morbid aesthetic. In motion, this typography comes to life, evoking an eerie dance in keeping with the theme of the piece.

This project fuses typographic creativity and artistic representation for a distinctive promotional video, capturing the spirit of the « Danse Macabre » with visual narrative depth. The creative use of bone anatomy creates an immersive visual experience, reinforcing the link between the visual and the concept of the piece.
