Legion – Season 1
"Acclaim" Spot
Legion is a total mind-f^©k that plays on the audiences' ability to rationalize and understand what is real and what's in your mind. Blend this with the lead character who is arguably one of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Universe, and you get quite the visual playground to explore in terms of branding and design.
For Season 1, we explored the themes of micro-vs-macro and how it relates to what is real and what's in your mind. The visual concept driving our work is an abstract play between cosmic nebulae (and our character's seemingly endless ability to control matter of any scale), and the idea of visually representing the microscopic brain matter of the same being – perhaps even at the sub-atomic level.
Working with Korb, we were able to explore a vast range of CG approaches that could bring these ideas to life. That age-old expression, "show me something I haven't seen before," was definitely used more than once! But, it was a great collaboration, ultimately creating a number of amazingly dynamic forms from which to package the show in its premiere season.
