The Twilight Zone Project
A while back my brothers and I started up Sound, Sight & Mind, a podcast dedicated to The Twilight Zone. While discussing and debating the series I rediscovered my love of the classic show, and, inspired by designers ranging from Saul Bass to Juan Ortiz, I decided to create posters inspired by individual Twilight Zone episodes, with the goal of designing one for each of the 156 original episodes.
For "It's a Good Life" I incorporated elements of Jerome Bixby's original short story (Anthony is never described fully, but it is noted that he has a "wet, purple gaze") along with the details of the Twilight Zone episode. Horror movie posters, especially the posters for The Village of the Damned, were a big influence on this one.
