The objective of this project was to produce the main movie title or end credits for a motion picture. I decided to create the end credits for Tim Burton's movie The Nightmare Before Christmas.
The Nightmare Before Christmas is a 1993 American stop-motion animated musical dark fantasy film directed by Henry Selick. The film follows the misadventures of Halloween Town's pumpkin king, Jack Skellington. He attempts to bring Christmas to his home but instead causes confusion.
PITCH | CONCEPT.
The intention was to create a distinct visual style for the title sequence that differs from the clay figures while retaining the somber tone of the movie. This was achieved through the use of grayscale illustrations on a dark purple background with texture.
SKETCHES.
The sketches helped me to plan out, and have a better understanding of the layout, composition, and overall design.
FIRST STYLE FRAMES.
Working out the flow and overall style of the design. Also, making sure it is clear and easy to understand.
