Inspiration Research

Below are similar sorts of designs and style techniques for the title sequence or title card.

 

1. The Walking Dead (AMC), 2010

The Walking Dead follows a similar style I want to achieve, a lot of close-ups or establishing shots that set the scene for the rest of the programme. Similar to the walking dead I want to show loneliness and desolation. However, I feel as if I should focus more on the horror theme within my own project.

2. American Horror Story (FX, 2011)

American Horror Story uses entirely video footage with no introduction to any characters. Another thing I liked is there was no defining soundtrack. Whereas The Walking Dead times its cuts with its soundtrack. AHS feels like the soundtrack is tied to the footage. A lot of fast cuts creates a lot of tension something that maybe good for my own work. This intro makes me want to attempt to trial video footage as if it’s from a person’s eyes for my own project.

3. The Conjuring (2013)

The Conjuring uses entirely images and news clippings as if they were placed on a light box. What I like about this is its lore telling. Although we are only given images, they are extremely clear and feel like they’re worth taking in to understand the story world we are being shown. The news clippings in particular could be used to hint within my show that the survivors are missing and haven’t been found.
