Jester Visual Concept Development:

Initial images and concept direction supplied by Laura Hypponen.

“We envision the piece to start in a black studio, with the Jester dressed in black and white, in spotlight, delivering this monologue”. Laura Hypponen email extract.

The first part of Jester sees our man character performing directly to the camera in a darkened studio. Part 2 reveals a wicked twist of fate and of life, requiring a single wardrobe change to force home the reality of Jester.
