“Would you put day drinking under experience or special abilities?” — Jessica Jones
Get to know the darkest corners of Hell’s Kitchen through the eyes of Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), the titular superhero-turned-private-investigator — a hard-drinking, hard-hitting misfit whose troubled past has finally caught up with her. The line between private eye and voyeur slowly blurs as Jones haunts the rain-soaked streets, peering down alleyways and into foggy tenement windows, always watching, always being watched. Composer Sean Callery’s theme starts out slow and jazzy, but then takes on a frantic, frenzied dimension as her shadowy hunt continues — a hint of purple ever on the periphery.
Produced by Imaginary Forces with Creative Director Michelle Dougherty at the helm, the Jessica Jones title sequence stunningly transposes the distinctive painting style of Alias illustrator David W. Mack to set the stage for a complex and disturbing comic book yarn unlike anything Marvel has produced to date.

So how did this project begin? What was the first meeting about the Jessica Jones sequence like?
Michelle: There was a quick initial briefing call where they wanted us to be a blank slate for fresh ideas. They were open to anything and everything.
Arisu: My first meeting was with Michelle, who I’ve worked with very closely for many years at Imaginary Forces. She asked me to design several directions for the pitch frames.
