Cave REscue

A double-page spread for Reader’s Digest, for an article covering the story of caver George Linnane’s 8 meter fall and 54 hour rescue. 

“The overall tone/mood for the art should be dramatic and cinematic We’d really like something that shows the moment that the rock bridge gives way, sending George falling down 8 meters while Mark and Mel look on.”

Shown are some roughs from the pitch stage, the final print spread and a moving version of the illustration.
