Time is a basic ingredient of any story. 

Editing a film, cutting the story, designs how it will be read. In most fiction movies the cuts are intended to be invisible, and not interfere with getting to 'The End'. The first project reveals those cuts, on a small screen. The film is killed, and the glue which holds all its parts together is shown. The second project takes time (of film narrative) as the layout structure of a movie poster. A system is developed: taking the height and width of a monospace typeface to represent a unit of time (one minute). A time-related phrase was taken from the story and extended to the length of the relevant part of the film. This generic poster design can be applied to any movie, especially when the film's story deals with time on several levels. Applied work includes movie poster/title/prop design for a fiction film and title/poster design for a documentary.
