Welcome to Derry

TITLE SEQUENCE | DESIGN + DESIGN BOARDS

- March 2024

This is a pitch design board I created for It: Welcome to Derry. Using cardboard, I constructed a miniature model of Derry town with a strong 1960s vibe. The design transitions from a cheerful, idyllic atmosphere to a dreary, bloody horror scene, symbolically unfolding the town's darkest secrets and expressing the story's escalating tension.

Concept

This pitch design board was created for the series It: Welcome to Derry. I constructed a dimensional model of Derry town using layered cardboard construction to achieve a three-dimensional effect, capturing the distinctive 1960s aesthetic. The board narrates the story visually by transitioning from a bright, happy, and seemingly innocent townscape to a progressively dreary and blood-soaked horror environment. This transformation effectively reveals the hidden darkness and terrifying secrets lurking beneath Derry's surface, emphasizing the narrative's core theme of fear concealed behind normalcy.
