HEROES REBORN Matt Van Rys Title Sequence Design Board WRITTEN TREATMENT Heroes Reborn This title sequence is designed to abstractly convey the complex narrative of Heroes Reborn and subtly prepare the viewer for the upcoming episode. This concept uses abstract visuals based on the aurora borealis, which play an important role in the fictional science of the program’s narrative — earth’s magnetic field which protects the planet from solar radiation and the natural magnetic pole reversal. These abstractions help imply the conflict that drives the show’s characters, focusing on the clash between “evos” and “non-evos” and the struggles within each key character. Viewers will identify with the show’s overall premise on a subliminal level. Recommended execution before first commercial break after narrative hook and minor cliffhanger moment. Viewers will understand the science fiction nature of the show through the visuals and will easily differentiate it from any competitive programming.
