THE BRIEF:

Once again collaborating with our friends Elastic.tv, Frederic Colin and the team put together the beautiful yet haunting opening credits for Disney/FX's American Horror Stories episode 'Bestie'.

Frederic and the team were asked to blend 3D and VFX with footage to create something jarring yet beautiful to kick start the episode, and they didn't disappoint.

As it happens we're quite good at making spooky work, and this example from season 3 of the hugely popular series is a testament to that. Released just in time for Halloween 2023 too, perfect.
