This is the opening title of "Hôrai", a TV show... that doesn't exist and probably never will. It's a personal project. The aim was to achieve an intriguing opening title, set in a Greco-Roman deserted landscape with a hint of anachronistic anomalies.
In Greek mythology, Hôrai were the goddesses of the seasons and the natural progression of the day and night.

An rough animatic was created using Stable Diffusion AI and reference music from Tomb Raider Anniversary. Next, the previs was created in C4D to define framing and timing for the music composer. Final rendering was done in Octane, composited in After Effect and edited and graded in DaVinci Resolve.
Most assets come from the Quixel Megascan, and especially the collection "Roman City Ruins" from Henrieta Vajsabelova, and scans of real statues from the Scan the World initiative.
The anachronistic elements were created from element libraries such as Turbosquid, Poly Haven and GCtrader. I reworked them to suit the context.
The scooter was simplified and aged using Zbrush and Substance Painter.
The television was broken using Voronoi fracture and turned into stone in Substance Painter.
The mosaic was created using Stable Diffusion AI. It was then reworked in Photoshop, scaled and the shader maps created in Materialize (a great free tool from BoundingBoxSoftware).
