CINEPHONIC is an immersive film and sound series that reimagines the silent film experience through live, contemporary musical scoring. Designed as a hybrid of cinema and concert, each event invites audiences to experience classic silent films with newly composed soundtracks, performed live in iconic venues across Los Angeles.

This project centers around the tension between past and present — merging the visual legacy of early 20th-century cinema with experimental sound and forward-thinking design.


The identity draws from the language of early film — optical typography, flicker, and projection artifacts — and reframes it through a modern lens. Inspiration came from silent-era title cards, theater marquees, Bauhaus geometry, and graphic notation systems used in avant-garde music.

Visuals were designed to feel temporal and kinetic, echoing the live nature of each event. Posters, motion pieces, and signage lean into abstraction, minimalism, and layered light.
