I aim to be
lionhearted,
but my
hands still
shake
and my voice
isn’t quite
loud
enough.
Michelle K., Earning Your Roar (via wordsnquotes)
Director Denis Villeneuve and screenwriter Eric Heisserer created a fully functioning, visual, alien language. Heisserer, Villeneuve and their teams managed to create a “logogram bible,” which included over a hundred different completely operative logo-grams, seventy-one of which are actually featured in the movie.
The inky circular alien language was created by Montreal artist Martine Bertrand. It is also the artist’s son who created Hannah’s drawings.
