20th Century Studios gave us this challenge for the film Murder on the Orient Express: Build a social content series that creates a sense of wonder and mystery while appealing to a global audience. Oh, and make the visuals from scratch using only the film’s color scheme. Luckily, we love a good challenge almost as much as we love a great murder mystery.


What did we do?

We crafted beautiful animated illustrations that invited people to play detective in a world full of illusions. Published​ on the studio’s social accounts, these illustrations engaged audiences across the world.

Each of our 14 illustrations featured a different main character with iconic props and intriguing hidden references. To spot them all, you need a keen eye like Detective Poirot’s.
