ROCK ‘N’ ROLL IS NOT DEAD _Opening Titles

I was approached by the director and the producer of this very special indie documentary “Rock 'N' Roll Is Not Dead" to develop its credit sequence. They had very clear from the beginning they wanted to show a detailed look at the backstory and evolution of the film’s main characters, the children of 2 rock legends and their childhood full of excesses.
We decided to try to suggest that with a quick montage of close-up shots of the internal workings of an old audio tape player, the part that nobody sees.

Although pretty far from my usual style, I had a lot of fun integrating the credits into the sequence and playing with their reflections and depth of field, creating my small personal homage to legendary title sequences like Panic Room or North by Northwest
