Take A Look at Some Alternate End Credits Options For AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
Avengers: Age of Ultron had a LOT going on (arguably too much), but one of the constants of the MCU films has always been their cool closing credits sequences. Ultron's ends with the camera flying around a marble statue of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, but that wasn't the only option writer/director Joss Whedon had to choose from.
A visual effects studio called Perception was tasked with creating the movie's end credits, and they've released a few videos and images (via /Film) that reveal different versions than the one we eventually saw in theaters. First up, a quick overview of the company's work on the project overall:
Now you can dive further into each option and see the creative options they created for Whedon and his team to check out.
DIRECTION A – HIVE MIND
Inspired by Ultron’s hive mind ability, which enables him to animate and control entire armies of robots simultaneously, this direction uses swarms to create and reveal imagery and character specific objects for each title card.
DIRECTION B – CRACKLE
For generations, Marvel fans have loved the incredible renderings of power and pure energy that have lifted off the comic pages emanating from their favorite heroes and this direction takes its inspiration from those classic panels.
DIRECTION C – ICONIC MOMENTS
Bold icons encapsulate characters, locations, and plot points into simple and clever forms while rich environments give moody context to each symbol, suggesting endless layers of iconic moments.
DIRECTION D – EARTH’S MIGHTIEST HEROES
Inspired by heroic war monuments and classical sculpture, this direction involves the crafting of a full Avengers sculpture that freezes their most epic face-offs within the monument of war.
