"We are arriving at that unique moment in time where the
term "fan-made" becomes moot. This is extraordinary."
- Damon Lindelof, Executive Producer, LOST
"Kudos to Daniel Kanemoto for his terrific fan version of
THE WALKING DEAD opening titles -- they rock big time!"
- Gale Anne Hurd, Producer, THE TERMINATOR, ALIENS, THE ABYSS, THE WALKING DEAD
My favorite "exclusive" from the 2009 Comic-Con convention was a beautiful painting by legendary artist Drew Struzan, featuring a horde of zombies from THE WALKING DEAD. Frank Darabont is adapting the apocalyptic Image Comics book created by Robert Kirkman, and man, it looks really, really great.
As I was admiring Struzan's work of art, I wondered what the opening titles to this terrifying new television show might look like... so I animated a spec title sequence using artwork ripped from the pages of the comic, originally illustrated by Charlie Adlard and Tony Moore.
Just so there's no confusion, I'm not affiliated with the production in any way -- I'm simply a huge fan of both Frank Darabont and Robert Kirkman, and this is my attempt at creating a cinematic introduction to one of the all time great "continuing stories of survival horror."
THE WALKING DEAD premiered on October 31st, 2009 on AMC and is currently the highest rated basic cable series of all time.

Wish someone like HBO would make a direct comic adaptation animated series of the walking dead. That would be sick
also extremely brutal lmao, more brutal than the show. but idk if they can show some shit, example Michonne being raped. I seriously don't know if they can show that lol
@@Joshyyy6 And Rick lose 1 hand
@@Joshyyy6 They probably wouldn’t show it, just imply it
@@Joshyyy6 They already went halfway with the governor telling Maggie to take her clothes off and slamming over the table. All they got to do is switch her with Michonne and do what Game of Thrones did with Ramsay raping Sansa. They don’t show it, but we hear it and we know what’s happening. Still not as brutal as the comics but they don’t need to make it needlessly brutal as possible lol
If they decide to make The Walking Dead the Animated Series they would have the cast members of the original Walking Dead AMC the only thing I want to make The Walking Dead the animated series was Ezekiel it would have been voiced by Dave fennoyed who voiced Lee from The Walking Dead Telltale Game
i always come back to this, it's so cool
megan kathleen same. I rewatch this occasionally because it’s so damn good
Yep, me too. Because the back more than 1/4, of the show, sucked and I stopped watching. THIS video makes me think about how absolutely great the first several seasons were, maybe up to where Andrea died.
@@Tonya57Ja this is relatable af. I was a die hard fan in the beginning but stopped watching pretty much after Andrea died too.
@@megzasmr Think you should give it a chance. 4-6 is also really good imo. 7 and 8 is garbage though. S9-11,especially 9 is underrated
Wish the comic version was the series:(
+Mr. BruhDixon me too, but the TV version gave us great stuff too, Daryl, the CDC, the extended time with shane AND that sweet prison attack scene
+Corey Simpkin True
no thx.
I perfer comic version than tv
me too
I like this, but the intro for the show they have currently is perfect in my opinion. They always make it fit perfectly into the beginning of episodes and the feeling to the current opening just feels right considering how dark and moody it is. This is pretty amazing though.
Beautiful work. The lens flares, the colours, cutting to the beat...everything.
I still remember watching this when it first came out 12 years ago. Crazy
Same, it's just so good.
Favorited this way back and wanted to revisit again. So good!
I love how its more faithful to the comic books, it looks like the kind of thing you would see in the closing credits of a kids animated film (the animation style of course)
Just saw this and I wish it was the main title theme for the show ❤ when Rick is on top of the tank and shoots the walker while the camera goes back, and the music… awwww! Chills man chills 😅
I'm just going to play this at the beginning of each episode. There's no way they can do anything better than this.
even the lyrics match the video AMAZING,need to see this as the intro.......AMC you better be watching
This is so cool dude! If AMC were smart, they would use this as the intro to the show. Way to go and keep up the great work.
I love the intro they have already, but this is so unbelievably awesome. In class I'm doing an animated graphic novel about zombies right now as a project, I wish it looked this amazing!
this is mad artistic and fits the comic perfectly but i think the current intro captures the total dystopic and realistic feel of the walking dead tv show
I was around 12 years old when I first saw this on g4. I thought it was badass as fuck and it still is
This thing is sick.
This theme is better than anything on TV now.
This is awesome! Please make more of these! Subscribed!
I can't believe how awesome this is!
This is so damn good. I literally can SEE this working for the show. You should make one for the cast of Season 3 and the Prison, one of the best 'Eras' in the Graphic Novel and I have every faith in that it will be just as good in the Show.
The reason why this should be the official titles is because every time I think about the show, I think of this video.
Amazing!
Should be used for the opening sequence of the start of the season two episodes.
So awesome man, definitely worthy of being an official opener
wow wow wooooow... this is serious... awesome edition!
slick work - - genuinely inspiring mogfx, man!
Amazing job done! I wish this was the true opening! :D
They should use this as the intro and pay you royalties. Plus it has a cool story behind it too - and it could only help the show take off.
WOW. THAT was fantastic.
Holy shit :O Great stuff!!!
you do not understand how much i love this.
I remember when attack of the show played this, it was amazing then, it's still amazing now.
Incredible. Can't wait till the 31st but god damn, this should be the opening titles.
dude this is amazing.......
You should get a team together and just do this for the whole comic with voice actors and everything!
Outstanding!
omg! its beautifully creepy. please amc use this!!!
Love the live action interpretation of TWD, even if it did stumble in some parts, but damn, an R-rated, comic-accurate, animated series akin to Invincible (coincidentally, another series written by Robert Kirkman) would be fucking amazing.
That would be incredible. Would be far better than the live adaptation imo. Where do you think S1 would end? Imo it'd end around the time Rick gives his "We aren't the walking dead" speech
I am blown away by the creativity and quality of work within this opening sequence. Well done!
Maybe you're not affiliated with the show, but you totally should be. That was totally sick. And super duper props for using Eels.
holy crap this is amazing
HOLY SHIT, well done.
I'm watchin this over and over again - and it's awesome every time :D
So full of win - great stuff!
amaaazing man
So good!
Amazing
Simply the best
Dan, what did you think of the show? It's out, I'm loving it!
Ooooh, I like! Thumbs up! I like this intro better than the actual show's intro.
Bro we need an animated show adaptation of the comics in full color😭😭😭 Like I love the show but it would be so sick to have that as well yk
Great Jpb I would love to see this that was Super Awesome good 👍
Great job, man.
Wow thats kick arse!
Really good, if their was an animated series this would fit the bill perfectly, but i do also love the actual intro
@DeepCosmo damn, just what i was going to type. Fantastic work, tho mate!
It's really hard to think of a way that AMC could come up with something better than this, unless of course it's this video extended
This is an incredible intro, fantastic work
They should use this as the official intro, it's awesome.
Awesome!
extreme awesome!
brilliant.
Dude. I really hope AMC buys this from you and uses it next season. This is amazing.
amazing! Awesome job, man.
Whats the song called?
This is so amazing!!
Great Job.
Very nice! Especially the 2D-3D effects, like the officer's gun :).
That was just epic!
hole shit this is badass i love the comics i read it all and i just found this this is assume man
This should definitely be the opening sequence
Awesome stuff man, I hope they actually listen to the fans and use this, cause I doubt they have anything better.
cant wait for season two and i have read the comics can only image how the are going to pull some the stuff off
Way better than the live action one.
Wish there was a comic/animated version of the series. The live action one was just godawful after the books ended. See how many memes there are for the tv series compared to the comics. XD
Wasn't even that bad. I swear the show is overhated. Yes, the comics are far better, but the show was one of the best shows today compared to the trash on tv currently.
Wow, very cool!
@danielkanemoto great job. send this to amc because the comic is creeping up on 100 issues so there may be a tribute to it.
This is Fucking incredible.
Awesome man, i didn't read your text first and i really thought it was official. Too bad...
Respect.
now i just want to see the series lol just for this
That wud be the best thing ever
This would work so well!!!!!!
@gwahler85 absolutely right! This intro is amazing and this Eels song was the perfect choice
This was fantastic my friend. Until I read the info I honestly thought that this was the real deal, and it should be dammit!
this is amazing
HOLY SHIT this is AMAZING!
sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better, i wish they would use this!
Somebody needs to contact the producers of the TV series, quick, so they can call for some last minute editing. This opening would be too original for TV!
magnifique !!!! bravo !!!!
Incredible intro, however I do see why amc didn't go with it. the other intro fits the style of the show a lot more, and it was the right choice to keep the one they had. still, this is incredible, props, daniel!
When I heard the JINX intro... I was like "I know this song..." then it hit me. And I missed this intro all over again.
Awesome =D
I love this into!
0:01 to 0:06 looks like a preview to another episode of the walking dead if it was the motion comic version
Epic
this was INCREDIBLE! please say you make craploads of cash doing this.
Love
@RotoPlasmX 100% agreed mate, but hats of to the creator, bloody fine job dude :D
it wud be awesome if the show was animated in this style.
I seriously doubt AMC can come up with anything better than this.
awesone
I definitely hope to see this opening for the official serie.
Any comment from AMC ?
Very soon okay so much soon in amazon prime
excelent
They should add this to the AMC show!
