Bates Motel
Titles & Campaign Sound Design

Agency: eyeball
Role: Executive Creative Director, Sound Designer

Collaborating with A&E and Loyalkaspar, we created the main title cue and all music and sound design for the teaser campaigns for the first two seasons of Bates Motel.

 
 

Reintroducing the emotional themes of the classic film for a new TV adaptation was a harrowing task requiring a lot of creative experimentation.

 
 
 

For the launch of Season 1, we created sound design for a series of teasers with dark underscores, as well as the sound for the opening title. For Season 2, we collaborated with the same team again to go even darker. We also got the opportunity to make a custom track for the bizarrely creepy spot that features Norman and Norma sitting together on their bed.
