Antigone
To set the mood of the dark play Antigone, a campaign was created in phases for the USF School of Theatre and Dance.
Phase 1: Concept Art
This incarnation of Antigone is a modern retelling of Sophocles’ classic Greek tragedy that revolves around a woman pushed to the edge by tragedy and a warning that pride will be punished by the blows of fate.
