Infinite Ways to Draw the Sun is a fictional film for which
I created the opening title sequence. The movie would be
a documentation of the experience of a woman working
through her creative process. The focus on her, the viewer
would be swept away by the captivating ups and downs of the generation of a project.
The handwritten type, animated textures, and application
of effects highlight the craft of the sequence, suggesting
the protagonist of the film could have made these opening
credits herself.
The opening title sequence gives the audience an abstracted synopsis
of the film, illustrating the steps of the creative process. Following the “protagonist”, an audience witnesses the onslaught of ideas, the trial and
error stage, and the synthesis of a final product. Working with simple geometric shapes, predominately circles, the animation serves as a microcosm of the feature length film to follow.
