Tomb Raider:
The Legend of Lara Croft

• Type // Main Title Sequence
• Role // Design, 3D, Animation, & Compositing
• Year // 2024

I designed and animated the Main Title Sequence for Netflix's Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft. This sequence takes place over the whole season: the logo getting more and more destroyed and then rebuilt, reflecting Lara's character arc of strife and perseverence.

This is the age of streaming, so we tried to build that into the experience of the Main Title. Each episode starts and ends with the logo being on screen for 5 seconds, with each ending logo from one episode transitioning into the beginning logo for the next episode. Each episode's transition animamtion had to be just right, so that it would work both as a connected sequence if the viewer watched them one after the other with autoplay on, or as a standalone piece if the viewer did not.
