PETEYPEDIA
For HBO’s Watchmen, I worked in collaboration with the show’s creators to make a custom microsite known as Peteypedia, full of extra content that expands the world of the series. We paid homage to the graphic novel’s use of “supplemental inserts” like newspaper clippings, book excerpts and comic books within comic books, giving fans and press a place to return to each week for more answers, theories, and background.
With this project, we created 23 total assets with over 60 pages of content and updated site after every episode. We highlighted the show’s alternate reality with low-fi internet and technology design, which was based on in-world newspapers and publications from the show. As an easter egg for superfans, we included a hidden link to an illustrated poster by the original Watchmen comics artist, Dave Gibbons.
