The Pharmacist

Title Sequence & Series GFX Package

Netflix

2020

Title sequence and full graphics package for "The Pharmacist," Netflix's true crime docuseries following a Louisiana pharmacist's search for justice after his son's death, and the opioid crisis it uncovers.

The visual system was built to honor the story's sensitivity — personal and intimate, but dark and rough enough to match its themes of addiction and grief.

The title sequence centers on a photoreal CGI analog TV, specific to the 1990s setting, staged to play actual home footage in its native 4:3 format within the modern 16:9 frame. Cinematic camera moves around the set give the simple setup movement and variation across the titles. Elsewhere in the series, scanned first-hand archival documents were used to generate CGI recreations, giving the graphics package a tactile, intimate feel throughout.
