VICE Asia — Deadly Beauty
Overview
Deadly Beauty is a VICE World News docu-series investigating dangerous and unregulated beauty procedures across Asia — from unlicensed clinics to DIY treatments with severe consequences. The full graphics package covers the title sequence, lower thirds, headline stacks, data visualisations, and archival treatments across four episodes, collectively reaching over 9.5 million views on YouTube. All elements were designed to stay within VICE's established visual language while holding a consistent identity across the series.
Title Sequence
Each episode opens with a unique title clip matched to its subject matter, with the episode title overlaid on top — giving every installment its own visual context while keeping the series identity consistent.
