German 3D artist and motion designer Jona Pahl makes his Stash debut with this intriguing spec CG title sequence and process reel for a sci-fi series called The Ark, exploring the complex bonds between animals and humans.

Jona Pahl: “This title concept is for a fictional miniseries about a future in which humans have abandoned earth due to pollution and attempt to breed genetically engineered animals to adapt to the agricultural needs and ecological circumstances of life on a foreign planet.

“The visual concept is meant to highlight the relationship between humans and animals as historically characterized by both adoration and exploitation.”
