About the project
“We focused on duality,” the team told 3D World. The Rorschach idea mirrored the inky quality of the symbiote and illustrated duality effectively. This project continued Ben Conrad’s collaboration with Fleischer, which includes titles for “30 Minutes or Less,” “Gangster Squad,” and sequences for “The Avengers” and “Iron Man 3.”—3D World “Stay For the Credits”
