THE ASK

The mirror as a portal for true self-examination, or in this case a warped sense of self-image that our characters have, gives us a practical and conceptual canvas to explore the overall motif of distortion that runs through the series.

We venture into the contradictory, absurd, and bizarre. Not often do you get to distort the face of talent like Emma Stone so we took as much liberty as we could.
