Broken & Cyn
Proving that even short films can benefit from a decent title sequence, LA-based visual effects company Numb Robot provides some nice work for these low-budget, independent productions.

is Cyn supposed to be a Bond rip off?
The typework in ‘Broken’ is not bad at all, although the nervous twitching has become a cliché over the last years. Maybe it’s me, but I have trouble actually reading the names, they’re too fast for me ! Is it a coincidence that the VFX-supervisors name is onscreen just a little longer?
I didn’t like these film nor their titles. Alot of hype in these.
Have to agree that Cyn looks very very much like a bond intro. Many of the effects in there are exactly the same. The music on the Cyn one seems very off to me as well. Is that definitely the soundtrack?
In its defence though it is very well made.
