A collaborative project reimagining the title sequence for the Netflix Original series, The Haunting of Bly Manor. We redesigned it to emphasize the series’ intertwining connections of horror, emotion, and complex storytelling. With this in mind, our design focuses on depicting places of significant importance in the series, which serves as a device to foreshadow the overarching plot without revealing the story at hand.
Stylistically, the project is a combination of different styles such as illustration, 3d techniques, and 2d animation; allowing for a calming, yet slightly unsettling feel that fits the characteristics of The Haunting of Bly Manor.
