Popular show, “Black Mirror”, by Charlie Brooker does not currently have a title sequence. Because the show is an anthology it can be difficult to create a sequence that well captures the various plots and themes.
The goal of the created sequence was to represent frequent themes of the series like invasive technology, individualism, and consumerism. To achieve this, stylized illustrations that reference well known moments in the show are animated to reveal names of key figures who work on the anthology. The cold color palette mixed with the distressed texture of the background and text create an atmosphere of discomfort and unpredictability, much like the show.
