"FEAR THE WALKING DEAD" - LIVE ACTION SHOOT ↓

The goal for the prequel to the wildly popular The Walking Dead was to emphasize the beginning of the virus taking hold in its origin city of Los Angeles. A plethora of logos were explored, but it was clear the final version had to reveal a sense of grit, decay, and decline from the top down, which was achieved through live action shots of liquid elements. Musical score by Atticus Ross.
