this is mad artistic and fits the comic perfectly but i think the current intro captures the total dystopic and realistic feel of the walking dead tv show
I like this, but the intro for the show they have currently is perfect in my opinion. They always make it fit perfectly into the beginning of episodes and the feeling to the current opening just feels right considering how dark and moody it is. This is pretty amazing though.
I hope AMC contacts you or something to use this intro for Season 2 because it caps the first Season 1 well. And it's just plain beautiful, great work!
I love the intro they have already, but this is so unbelievably awesome. In class I'm doing an animated graphic novel about zombies right now as a project, I wish it looked this amazing!
It's a lot more artistic then the original one and it looks great, but I think the original opening is more in line with the "all-over ambiance" created in the TV series.
The only thing i would change would be him shooting the person instead of the zombie. Please do not take this as me saying i think its shitty or something i think its great!
it wouldn't fit the show, nevertheless this is so well done someone ought to make a seperate version of TWD (animated and action packed) JUST because you made this intro.
ah, I don't think they'd be able to change the opening credits anymore on the count of there's only 3 more episodes left. :/ It irks me because this is the only show on TV I really give a fuck about.
Incredible intro, however I do see why amc didn't go with it. the other intro fits the style of the show a lot more, and it was the right choice to keep the one they had. still, this is incredible, props, daniel!
The ONLY real reasons I could think of for AMC not picking up this opening for The Walking Dead is because it used the song True Blood used first to public recognition, and yes, it might slightly draw away from the tone of the show, but not enough for me. But while this credit sequence is synced to this song, I would have hired him to redo one with the opening theme actually used, a blend of the two openings. Maybe Season 2.
Still, this is a great business card / resume for Daniel.
This is a bloody brilliant intro. I thought it was the real one and it SHOULD be the real one. This is so perfectly put together. BRAVO. And that song! "I need fresh blood."
This is really amazing!!! But it's completely wrong for the series. The AMC series appears to be completely irony free. Having this would make the show look like some sorta black comedy or something. There's too many "zombie comedies" out there. The Walking Dead is the real deal. Finally! The end of zombie splatt stick!!!
@RotoPlasmX No, this intro fits the series better than the official one. The series is supposed to be about humans with less humanity than the zombies they hunt.
@Savaril I know, but it's also not supposed to be a black comedy like virtually every zombie film made in the last 10 years. This intro is too darkly funny, too ironic. As beautiful as this intro is, I still firmly believe it just isn't right for the series.
@Savaril Right. I hear ya. But it's not as over the top as those films. It's darker and more subtle. And the zombies aren't all slap sticky like in Shaun or Zombieland. They're truly terrifying for a change.
@Sinvex1 I'm talking about the over abundance of zombie comedy/horror films out there. There hasn't been a really solid, serious zombie work done in years. It's all this hyper-ironic, overly referential bullshit (Shaun of the Dead, Zombieland, etc.) This fan made opening sequence (though gorgeously made) seems more in line with the trend of those films I listed than what The Walking Dead is really about. Plus this song choice is completely wrong: these lyrics are about vampires or some shit.
Although this one is better in terms of editing and creativity, the original keeps with the dark tone of the show. If this were to be used for the title sequence, the show just wouldn't be taken seriously. Like I read someone else say, this makes it seem "campy."
I watched the pre-air of the Pilot. Amazing series, obviously. Talking about the opening, it's completely different. This one is in a sort way auto-ironic and more artistic, while the real one is dramatic, apocalyptic and a little bit creepy. I think that the second fill better with the show, but the Kanemoto's one is also amazing. I blame AMC only because it decided to don't use paintings from the comic, it would be better. They're both amazing anyway.
Just to clear up the obvious question, and yes it sucks because this intro would be incredible for the series, AMC is NOT using it as detailed by a blog post on the official website (Google AMC Walking Dead and go through the older news archives.
He probably used After Effects. You can animate 2d images in 3d space and use a camera. A lot of motion comics are being made from the original artwork. This opening sequence is awesome.
Anybody know what software this guy used? Always wondered what people use for animating still images like this. They did a similar thing with the animated comic of Dead Space. What is it that people use to make flat images 3D with different layers?
congratulations. this was a HELL of an opening. really, you should try and send this to AMC or something. man, awesome... really! I still can't believe this is fanmade.
Somebody needs to contact the producers of the TV series, quick, so they can call for some last minute editing. This opening would be too original for TV!
Sadly, someone probably already got paid to make an opening sequence for the show. We'll see, but I'm guessing this one is better. :) Thumbs up if your having a premier party with fellow zombie nerds.
