Snowpiercer
(Title Sequence)
The sequence in Snowpiercer depicts a cycle of power shifts, where societal change leads to the collapse of inequality. A grand feast symbolizes upper-class privilege, while rebellion turns opulent offerings into decayed food. The imagery shifts from hellish to joyful, representing the breakdown of the elite and the masses’ liberation. This visual narrative highlights the ongoing cycle of oppression, rebellion, and societal transformation.
This title sequence is a homage to Snowpiercer, reimagining its themes of power, rebellion, and societal transformation.
Collaborative Project with Illustrator Sydney Liao.

02: Process:
For the feast scene, we sourced high-quality food models and arranged them like a still life. Set in a wealthy home's art gallery, we featured a full-scale Hieronymus Bosch painting, lit by flickering candles amid macabre elements. Every detail was carefully positioned for aesthetic and thematic coherence. Created in Cinema 4D, rendered in Redshift.
Post production in Photoshop added oil paint effects, hand painted details like blood splatters, and refinement in Lightroom for color correction.
To truly capture the essence of still life, drawing inspiration from external sources such as the Norton Simon Museum and observational studies breathed life into our work.
