Final Frames
The title sequence depicts the karmic concept through the metaphor of red threads. As we trace the red lines, we discover the pathways leading to destruction and chaos by one’s own actions.

TYPE TREATMENT
To distinguish it from the red threads, I opted for a serif typeface. Among serif options, I selected CINZEL for its sharper serifs, enhancing the tension in the scene.

DEVELOPMENT
In the initial phase, I likened the sequence to a spider web, envisioning the protagonist weaving a trap for themselves, much like a spider ensnaring itself. Yet, I discovered this metaphor overly complicated the scenes and hindered the integration of various elements.
