FLCL REANIMATED OP
NEVER KNOWS BEST.
In August of 2024, we came onto FLCL Reanimated to make an animated OP for the collab.
We took this one super seriously!
The goal was to make something that felt true to the source material, while also capturing the essence of what a reanimated collab is all about: showcasing a bunch of different visual styles. We wanted to touch on 2D, 3D, and mixed media to really give this some variety and an element of surprise.
Like the intro itself, the production was fast-paced and high energy. Pre-production began in August and we wrapped on the whole thing in December. A lot of work, but a lot of fun too. We hope the fun we had on this translates to something equally fun to watch!
THANK YOU to everyone that helped, and to FLCL Reanimated for trusting us with this element of the collab.
You guys rock!!
my friend worked on this!! everyone did a fantastic job!!!
Do I see a slight reference to Breaking the Habit or rather general early 2000s music video aesthetics on top of that iron in the end :) I love it, its such a nice flow and direction of collaborators !
StudioGEARHEAD responds:
You are completely right! We didn’t reference Breaking the Habit specifically but we wanted to give the whole thing a very Y2K late-night music vid sort of feel. Truth be told the backgrounds in that part w/ the kaleidoscope effect were done out of necessity: by the end we had vvv little time to make more detailed backgrounds. The one with Ninamori is actually an off-screen recording of Jet Set Radio playing on my CRT. All that stuff was just video recordings with a bunch of effects. The close-up of the guitar was a reference to the ending of the SpongeBob movie LOL.
Cool.
