gomorrah


This cover I did without any actual images from the film due to the fact I couldn't find any good ones, and, as it hasn't been released yet, I can't really screen capture anything from the film itself. The image you see is that of the apartment complex in Naples in which most of the film takes place. It is such a central part of the film and a representation of the numerous characters and shorelines that I think it works perfectly in conveying this amazing film. I then added an overlay of splattered blood staining and tainting the location much as the Commora Mafia that occupies it does.
I was really pleased with this cover until I saw what Criterion Collection published as their dvd cover, and once again they put me to shame. Amazing work. That's why they get paid.
