Twilight of the Gods
Client
The Main Title sequence for Netflix’s Twilight of the Gods marks yU+co’s sixth collaboration with director Zack Snyder. The show is a complex, hard R retelling of Norse mythology, depicting great battles, love, vengeance and gods. Zack wanted a cool, classy title sequence that would establish the dramatic, serious and sophisticated tone of the show. We designed a :30 sec title sequence for the opening episode and unique :10 sec titles for each of the 7 remaining episodes. We used typography that echoes the Norse symbols and weaponry and placed them over a green background to give the sequence an organic feel. Drawing inspiration from Norse runes, we designed a graphical recording of the show’s story. Using symbolic and abstracted interpretations of the characters, the sequences hint at their motivations and intricacies, preparing audiences for what is to come.
