For the Title Sequence Reimagined project, I am going to use Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure opening credits, seen below in a YouTube video. This is honestly one of my favorite movies, so I am excited to dive into working more on this project.

I want the design to keep the cheesy late 80s energy, but as I watch this opening, it doesn’t seem to have much to do with the movie. Maybe it’s more focused on the goofy and nonsensical nature of the movie, but I find that something involving time would be interesting to include. I would love to have a sundial, similar to that below, that is the main focus of the opening sequence.

As far as visual look, I searched the internet looking for posters, and found this poster by Matt Ryan Tobin. It is a redesign of the first movie poster, based on the poster he made for the second movie. I think I will start using this color palette, focusing on the use of grey/silver, faded red, and blue/teal.

Overall, I also want to use the audio, I find it very strange and intriguing, and I want to play into that. I am really excited to work on this, and will look forward to seeing how it progresses.
