Cool Marvel Titles

This Article was about how the titles for Marvel Movies are made. They are primarily made by Fede Ponce, who is a freelance artist. He also answered a few questions about his job. He first got started with this career with working on the Hitman movie for FOX. It was one of the first times a movie wanted to do a heavy CG trailer campaign. It was very popular at the time and started to become a new standard for film trailers. He also had quite a lot of time to work on these because sense movies take time, he would work on them 2 or 3 years before the movie came out. He would have to think through a lot of things though when making them. For instance different TV sizes and even phone screens. They also use software like Zbrush and Maya for making the titles, and then Maya again, Houdini and NUKE for Animating and Compostiting. For Thor: the Dark World, He had to design many different type interfaces for Marvel until they could design one that worked on multiple devices and Marvel liked. The Iron Man 3 title had similar requirements with it having it be red with the quality of metal. When they started working on it, they didn't have reference to go off of, so they had to design their own. But sometimes the titles don't see the light of day, as they had a cool Avengers title that had metal flowing together to form the logo. But they ended up going with a different one.
I thought this article was very interesting. You never really think about how much work goes into the titles of the movies, but It's definitely a lot. This article also got me more interested in CG as well.
