Tableau Vivant: Film Series Identity Tableau Vivant explores film through still composition, treating each poster as a staged moment. Designed as a dual-format system, the 22” × 33” poster transforms into a French-fold booklet, using a restrained two-color palette to unify image, typography, and narrative pacing. This curated 9-movie series explores cinema as living tableaux, where composition, color, and symbolism drive the narrative. From mystical, ritualistic films of the late 1960s and early 1970s to modern painterly visions, each film transforms the screen into a carefully composed painting.
