The Green Mile



Typography

Most of us know the story 'The Green Mile', we have read the book or seen the movie. For the assignment about narrative typography I chose tothis book because of the intense story, I wanted to translate this to narrative book-spreads and tell the horrible story with only the words itself. I chose to tell the part of the story where the prisoner died in the electric chair, so the spread had to have a lot of drama to create real impact!

I also made a redesign for the cover, in a simplistic and clear way, and a folder to give some extra information. This was all part of a typography project on the academy.






Book cover

Narrative spread - Intense and bold

Narrative spread - Simple and peaceful
