ONLY ON Extraweg’s Severance Season 2 Titlles: When to Kill Your (Brain) Babies

“The goat painting represents a shift from conscious thought into subconscious chaos. It adds to the disorientation and surreal logic of the sequence. I reused a visual idea from the Season 1 intro—where Mark jumps into his own head—and reinterpreted it here. In Season 1, the jump represented the split between Mark’s “innie” and “outie” selves. In Season 2, it becomes a descent into his fractured inner world. The painting also ties back to how ‘Severance’ uses framed artwork as symbolic riddles.”

This does not mean AI is replacing artists—instead, it is empowering them with creative superpowers. Today, the challenge is no longer technological—it’s imaginative.

The sky is the limit.

UNSUNG HEROES Box of Toys

“Asking the team, it seems we don’t have any stand out influences, just that we love most film, anime, TV, games and music. There’s almost not enough time in the day to consume it all but suffice to say we’re just a bunch of nerds who love what we do. In an effort to not appear completely beige we would venture that we’re all more into the darker side of storytelling!”

ONLY ON Ben Berman’s ‘HEADS’ The Inside Scoop – Dark Comedy, Jump Cuts & the Joy of Making Audiences Say ‘WTF’?

“The idea from the start was simple: document Jack’s work and animate his heads speaking. I’ve used this animation style in one or two of my past projects. But Jack’s heads—his art, his sculptures—were so striking and intriguing that I wanted to bring them to life. Maybe even take them to another level, though they certainly don’t need it.”

motion design vs. Motion Design: What’s the Big Deal?

Alright, let’s break this down without getting too fancy. The difference between lowercase motion design and uppercase Motion Design isn’t just about grammar—it’s about perception, purpose, and identity. Think of it like the gap between ‘I build houses’ and ‘I’m an architect’. One is a task; the other, a profession.
