Mock book covers for our Macbeth project, which tried to look at the play as a modern-day whodunit with Macduff being called in by Malcolm to investigate Duncan's murder. It's narrated by Macduff's wife, who functions more or less as a Watson figure and remains unseen throughout. The end result was a Max Payne-ish ten-minute film composed of posterised photographs made to look like graphic novel panels. What a mishmash.

Here are some shots I took:

Taken with a Canon 450D then posterised and fiddled around with. We added comicbook-style captions and voiceovers. And when it was all done we went to Arsalan and ate mounds of biryani to celebrate. So all's good.
