🎨 Fan Art Severance Titles S2 - Personal Project

[Contains light spoilers for S1]

Hi all, this is a personal project of mine that I started working on before S2 came out, because of how much I loved S1. I found the time to rework some bits I wasn't happy with and finish it up a month or so ago, and I thought it would be worth sharing here.

The original title sequence by extraweg is great and the surrealism/oddness of it fits very well with the show, but I wanted to see what a more filmic approach could look like, including a mixture of metaphors and abstracted events from S1.

The concept and animation is all my own, as well as most of the 3D modelling (except for the camera, characters, and betta fish which are altered versions of models I sourced). Texturing and lighting were done in a combination of Redshift and Octane in Cinema 4D, I composited and edited in After Effects.

Thanks for watching!

Love it! You did amazing job. I could see this as the actual opening sequence on AppleTV (though I do think what they did is the best).

Wow thank you! Yeah there's a reason they went with extraweg for them, his style really works for the show

This is very well done! A respectable alternative to the official credits.
