The Piketon Family Murders is a limited true crime series on Oxygen. Piketon, Ohio is the location of the infamous Rhoden family massacre in 2016. An entire family of 8, three generations, were massacred by a neighboring family. The case is still on-going.
We overlaid "rusted” textures over b-roll footage of the town to represent the rust belt and the melancholy nature of the town after the crimes. We worked with the production company, Georgia, to compose the music track with Ozark undertones.
