Personal Project Brief: Meteor and Thorn - Road adventure Rom-com from the 1980s with a nostalgic touch

To broaden the traditional binary definition of gender, I conceived a story about an elegant, gentle man (Zachary - The Meteor) and a violent, aggressive Red-head woman (Gina - The Thorn).
Set in 80s CA, it follows their chance encounter and subsequent road trip together.
The significant differences in their personalities caused many problems along the way, but in the end, they both gained a better understanding of themselves through each other's perspectives.

Zach and Gina have completely different habits when it comes to dressing and music, even in terms of their preferred colors. Zach likes shiny white things, while Gina likes sharp black things.

When the two broke into the wrong Disco Ballroom and were questioned by police officers, Zach was trying to use lies to disculpate their mistake, while Gina couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to run away.
