JAPAN 2021 was a Japanese film campaign by the British Film Institute carried out from 2020 to 2021 across the UK. The project focused on over 100 years of Japanese film through cinema seasons, online exhibitions, theatrical releases and education events. We used archetypes from different film genres to create an overarching traditional and modern design style. The illustration style allowed us to create a really strong and iconic promotional and advertising campaign.
