Output
The internet is not how we used to know it, the truth is blurred, information is twisted and reprinted. The visual treatment takes inspiration from printed material as a nod to when the news was trusted. This is applied to the portraits of the internet pioneers who made it great. Digitally painted flowers contrast the stripped back visuals to communicate growth and a new beginning underpinning the main purpose of the event.
