One of the most appreciated elements of Alien: Romulus among fans and audiences was the retro ‘lo-fi sci-fi’ tech on display in the film. 

Artist Jason Forrest Hogg (@nervouscircuit) recently posted a trove of behind the scenes images and videos of the visuals we caught glimpses of during the film.

Hogg lead the creative team at LOGAN in designing the computer UI interfaces of the film, as well as elements of the opening titles. 

As Creative Lead for screen UI, I led the design and animation teams to develop every on-screen graphic and device seen throughout the film. Our goal was to faithfully preserve the nostalgic CRT/analog aesthetic that defines the original, while weaving in subtle elements that hint at the evolution seen in later films. From interface logic to data-driven storytelling, every pixel served a purpose. Immersing myself in the rich lore of the Alien universe, I aimed to honor its legacy with thoughtful, story-driven design decisions.

Check out the isolated opening sequence animations for the Echo Probe below:

Hogg also posted a demo reel showcasing a compilation of the computer designs on display throughout Romulus:

We also have a better look at loads of other interface screen animations from various sequences of the film, including from Corbelan, Rooks lab, the cryogenic storage, and more:

The team additionally put together the glitchy 20th Century Studios and Scott Free logos seen during the films opening, as well as the Alien: Romulus tittle animation. Head on over to Jason Forrest Hogg’s website to see everything.
