Catatonic was a breakthrough, immersive VR horror film by Guy Shelmerdine and Edward Robles. I was tasked with providing the title design, collateral, and digital experiences. The "red line" graphic was a hook that tied directly into the shoot location—something you'd see on the floor of old hospitals.
Produced with the teams at Smuggler and Dark Corner Studios, 2020.

Graphic Editions — pairing experience imagery with a vibrating optical effect to unsettle a passerby
The refreshed digital experience is clean, contemporary, and painfully sterile—taking inspiration from St. Luke Medical Center in Pasadena, where the film was shot. Another cool note: when rolling over links you'll get an animation/ load effect that mirrors the updated title treatment.
