David Badounts is a Creative Director for major brands.
Working with Tom Cruise directly to set the tone for Doug Liman’s sci-fi action epic Edge of Tomorrow, we crafted a title sequence that serves as both prologue and warning. Set in a near future where alien invaders known as Mimics have devastated Europe, the sequence acts as a high-intensity newsreel, mixing global broadcast footage, UDF briefings, and archival-style fragments that suggest escalating chaos and mounting resistance.
The sequence opens with a bold declaration: the invasion began four years ago, and the enemy has only grown stronger. Adaptable, relentless, and spreading across continents, the Mimics have turned Earth into an ever-tightening battlefield.
