This title sequence was the first project for my motion design class, which I completed during my senior year at The University of Akron. My task was to re-create the opening credits for a film. I chose the film, developed the concept behind the title sequence (including brainstorming, sketching, mood board creation, and storyboarding), and produced it using After Effects. The film is a drama starring Brad Pitt (as Benjamin Button), who ages in reverse. My concept includes hand-drawn illustrations that I created, drawn in real-time to evoke the ephemeral nature of living and memories. I also selected the subject matter to establish the mood and tone without revealing critical information to the audience.
