Moana: Reimagined

A Horror Trailer Concept
In this reimagining of the beloved story, Moana is transformed from a vibrant ocean adventure into a haunting psychological horror. Set against a darker, more menacing ocean landscape, the trailer explores isolation, ancestral fears, and the unknown lurking beneath the waves. Familiar elements are twisted: the ocean is no longer a friend, but a force of terror; the journey is not about discovery, but survival.

Through chilling sound design, eerie visuals, and a reworked narrative tone, I crafted a trailer that pulls viewers into a version of Moana’s world where every wave carries a threat and every shadow hides a secret. Working with careful editing, haunting music, and a distorted color palette, I transformed a story of bravery into a nightmarish descent into fear and madness.

Moana: Reimagined challenges the audience to experience a childhood classic through a completely new, unsettling lens — proving that even the brightest stories can cast the darkest shadows when seen from another side.
