In collaboration with director R.J. Cutler and his team at This Machine, Filmograph designed tactile, poster-like title cards in the style of found street imagery of the 1960s and 70s. Clean layouts combine period-accurate pops of color with a natural happenstance aesthetic, embodying the life of Jack Roland Murphy, a pop culture icon of the era known as much for his surfing as he was for being New York's most notorious jewel thief.
