Demascus
Directed the title sequence for AMC / Tubi’s series Demascus.
In 2022, before robust video AI tools existed, we created the first-ever title sequence using a custom video AI pipeline. Built in Cinema4D and After Effects, the sequences were then fed into early Stable Diffusion and Disco Diffusion models for stylization. Without off-the-shelf solutions, we animated clay renders traditionally, then used early AI “hallucination” to reskin them and allow the intelligence dream an Afrofuturist journey through a morphing D.C. cityscape.
The concept mirrors the show’s plot, following Demascus through VR therapy guided by an AI that builds new multiverse realities from his memories and life choices.
Starring Martin Lawrence, Okieriete Onaodowan, and Sasha Hutchings, the series faced delays after AMC cuts and strikes for several years, but is now finally streaming on Tubi.
