This opening title sequence remake is designed to convey the development of the "Hacker" (2016) film narrative - a main character's living work space where most of his illegal activities take place. The general theme of the character's isolated lifestyle is expressed through the primary focus to hardware, hacking process, identity theft, and other physical and symbolic elements. With the help of tight shots, enclosed environment and velvet lighting the sequence’s intent suggests a cyber, slightly claustrophobic and tense feel to capture the ‘underground’ world of the dark web society. The live action part of this project was shot on a digital camera from different locations with the dual lighting rig setup. The challenge of this project was to create a unique visual aesthetic language in order to reflect the story of the film by incorporating digital distortions, typography treatment and sound design during the post-production process.
