For my Final Major Project in university, I created the main title sequence for an imaginary film called “Silk Road”. The film’s story is about a black market website on the dark web that sells illegal goods ranging from drugs to weapons.

The title sequence takes the viewer into Ross Ulbricht, the founder of the website’s mind. Through the concept of encryption, it explores the thoughts and ideas that defined the website and his personality.

Styleframes that show alternative explorations for imagery and composition.

Alongside the title sequence, I also created promotional content including a series of teasers and posters for the imaginary “Silk Road” film.

To complement the title sequence, I created a treatment of the studio logos that would appear at the beginning of the film.

It expresses the idea of encryption and corruption, through a technological feel. This prepares the audience for a dark, twisted and suspenseful story.
