Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition establishes a compelling sense of urgency and mystery, with the storm symbolizing conflict and danger while the merman and unconscious man provide emotional and narrative focus. Typography with jagged, rune-like characteristics ties into the fantasy genre, while the bioluminescent effect aligns visually with underwater fantasy themes.

Matte finish creates depth, while UV gloss adds eye-catching brilliance to key details, and the shimmered paper echoes the magical essence of the sea.
