The objective of this project is to explain the behind the scenes process of the music production within the show, while elaborating on the significance of the show. Through this publication, the goal is to influence the audience to watch Euphoria and listen to the score.
Within this project, the publication will strive to portray the atmosphere of Euphoria, vulnerability and escapism. It is almost contradictory, where they strive for realism combined with otherworldly aspects and fantasies. However, this publication will lean into the reality and intimacy of the show.

Euphoria is an HBO max original show that was released in 2019, written and executively produced by Sam Levinson. The storyline of this show follows a group of high school students and their journey through relationships, specifically love interests and friendships. Throughout their journey, they have to navigate through the world of sex, drugs, trauma, and social media. Not only has the show gained an enormous liking and following, but the score created by Labrinth has as well.
Original I felt very overwhelmed, with the amount of content and the page count. However, I realized that doing different aspects of the book little by little really helped. This also helped me stop, reflect my spreads, and make sure my content was relating to concept. The photos I chose I felt related to the intimate tone combined with the score scenes.
Inspiration + Sketches
I placed these spreads, which include the lyrics of songs within the score with the scenes that they are paired with, when the artist reflects on each specific song. This ultimately assisting in the organization and flow of the content.
