A series of documentary shorts in partnership with CNN to mark the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, and celebrate the lives of 3 seminal LGBT activists: Marsha P Johnson, Harvey Milk and RuPaul. Archival footage was mixed with typography, graphics, and sound design tailored to each story.
Harvey Milk
Harvey Milk, the first openly gay elected public official in California, was assassinated in 1978, eleven months after his election. Our documentary short was inspired by Harvey Milk’s campaign posters and buttons, as well as queer activist protest signs of the 1960s and ‘70s.
In partnership with CNN.
Marsha P. Johnson
Marsha P. Johnson, a central figure in the Gay Liberation Movement, is rumored to be one of the first people to begin rioting at Stonewall in 1969. The documentary's graphics were inspired by queer protest signs of the 1960s and 70s, as well as ephemera from S.T.A.R. (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries), an activist organization founded by Marsha and Sylvia Rivera.
RuPaul
The graphics and colors of the documentary are inspired by Rupaul's world, from his television show’s iconography to his glamorous drag persona.
