George & Tammy

Working with creator Abe Sylvia, Filmograph designed, directed, and edited this live action opening sequence for the television docudrama series about country music icons George Jones and Tammy Wynette. Abstractly portraying the vinyl record press process through macro photography, we lend the manufacturing of their albums an air of magical realism and beauty, a nod to the couple's complicated relationship with love, music, and addiction.
