Thanks for all your kind words. Much appreciated! If you’re interested to know more about the creative process behind this intro: www.reddit.com/r/survivor/comments/fxe3o0/custom_winners_at_war_intro_insight_into_the/?
twenty years ago just after my tenth birthday my grandmother told me about a neat show I would love to watch-- they replayed the Borneo premiere on Saturday that weekend for some reason. We talked about Survivor and was a way we stayed in touch-- I got the news yesterday she lost her battle with dementia and I'm going home tomorrow. Seeing this just made me feel so many memories of her. I'm crying in joy, not in pain. Thank you.
And this, CBS and Jeff Probst, is why y'all are full of it when you say it costs too much to make the intros than they're worth. This was amazing and took me a second to realize it was fan made. Very well done, and definitely made me miss the photos (especially the nod to one always falling off the display). It really doesn't take much to please us fans.
Love the little subtle features of the photo sections of each player: Their starting tribe name of their winning season with the logo of their winning season.
I LOVE IT! I love how you honor the winners by putting a photo cut scene like the old times. This one have to be the official. Thank you for making this great fan made intro, sir
This is so AMAZING. What I honestly love is the fast pace of the music that gives it a new feel (symbolic of an era coming to an end) but still has the Survivor nostalgia. Honestly, CBS just needs to hire you cause it's incredible that you did this with just press shots.
This is glorious. Allow me to fanboy over all of the little touches you added to make this look like this came directly from the CBS cutting room floor. The brilliant inter-cutting of action shots with the portraits, and how none of them look like mere pulls from an episode or going the cheap route and trying to use old footage. The branding of both the season logo when the player won and the original tribe name/logo on the crate for each winner. The fact that you either used ACTUAL PHOTOGRAPHS for the still shots or a damn convincing CGI alternative. The fact that there's water sprayed on the photos as well as how there's a mix of full color, sepia tone and grayscale indicates that they were authentic. If not and this was all done in post, you had me totally fooled. The way you mix in the gimmicks of the fire tokens and EOE during the intro, which is exactly what the show would do to indicate that both are important elements of the game. Starting the lineup with Sandra (the only 2-time winner) and finishing with Rob and Parvati (the other two legends). You even nailed the ending and how it always finishes at Tribal Council, with the usual torches/voting urn/snuffer montage. Brilliant, brilliant stuff. The ONLY knock I could make on this was actually showing Jeff at the end snuffing a torch. That was the only clue I had that this was put together by an amateur. But that's a minor point; the fact that you pulled this off to the level you did is just superb. If you don't work as a professional editor, you should.
Loogaroo I haven’t had the time to read and respond to all the comments, but thank you for your kind words, mate. I’m happy that this little passion project of mine is being enjoyed by the Survivor fan base.
This intro represents this season to a tee, Chaotic, in the most beautiful way. Just Amazing, even after the season ended, this is still a treat to look at.
This is awesome! I like how in the shots of the photos that they have the logo of the season in which they won and the name of their starting tribe around the photo. Nice work!
Omg I did not even notice that. That made it more thrilling & was the cherry on top to why this intro is stellar. Please get connections into the Survivor community & make their intros‼️😭
i love what you did with the portraits esp the burning and water dripping effects, which in hindsight for some of them ended up almost prophetic (esp sarah's burning!!!!!!)
Love the combo of old school and new school intro styles! And the fact that you lined so many shots up with the percussive beat of the song is beautiful. Amazing job
Well if they haven’t made one yet there is no reason to.... this is incredible. The detail in the photo shots with the logos and team names from their original seasons is an amazing touch.
I second that. I’m back here for day #5 wondering how the heck did they produce this and make it so neat. Best shots: Yul opening is mouth wide & Ethan’s still shot/Polaroid dangling‼️
I’d just like to say you have warmed my heart by bringing back those Polaroid/still shots of them. It seemed more authentic & like an actual Survivor journey when they did this. It seemed more eerie back in the day. I’m shook at how neat this intro looks & feel they need to hire you ❤️
I do enjoy the portraits being part of the intro. Hoping they will do those again. It is so much more creative and nostalgic than having two live action shots.
My eyes are fucking satisfied. I am fucking back after another day to fucking comment how fucking thrilled to watch this fucking badass intro. I am fucking appalled at the fucking dedication & fucking passion put into this fucking intro. Survivor seriously couldn’t fucking wait until after season 40 to fucking stop producing intros. Anyways, this intro is a fucking masterpiece & I am fucking addicted 💎‼️🤭
I genuinely thought this was the official trailer because of how much footage you got BEFORE THE SHOW aired? Like woah, I never realized you can make a whole trailer through promotions and stuff, very very very well done!
I've watched a lot of Survivor I feel like but I've only watched 10-12 of these people play. I have a feeling that some of those I haven't saw like Wendell, Kim, Natalie, etc. will stay longer than the more experienced ones like Tyson, Sandra, Tony, Parvarti, etc. Wish I had more time to watch their seasons before this started :(
Dalton Ross just tweeted out not too long ago and confirm if there will be no opening credits again. 😭😭😭 I can live with it if they don't put it on the show but for them to completely not show it at all even online is ridiculous. #SavetheSurvivorIntro
QUICK QUESTION: how did you make Ethan’s portrait dangle and fall off like that? Clever‼️ and how did you make/produce/incorporate all these still shots? What software did you use?
Thanks for all your kind words. Much appreciated! If you’re interested to know more about the creative process behind this intro: www.reddit.com/r/survivor/comments/fxe3o0/custom_winners_at_war_intro_insight_into_the/?
Shorterchip you should email cbs survivor and get them to show this intro during the finale episode, would be sick as
agreed!!! ^
Good effort, but there already IS an official theme.
I actually thought this was the actual professional intro. So good!!!
Amazing job!!! This actually got me excited! I’ve been watching every single fanmade intro and this is on top.
wait- this isn't the real one..
Oh! I didn't realize.. I knew something was off though
What he said
@@bright896 We got bamboozle.
I love that they brought back the portraits portion from the earlier seasons.
Edit: oh fuck.. its a fan edit? Wow.
Sho Franz yes but it looks LEGIT.
That’s EXACTLY what I thought!
My question is how did they make Ethan’s portrait dangle and fall off like that? Clever‼️
@Harvey Schwartz no this is a fan edit
Best one yet. Kinda like a combination of the old and new school types of intros!!
Perfectly said
Yes those still shots warmed my heart‼️

So sorry for your loss. What a sweet memory. Bless you
Sorry to hear about your grandmother... May She Rest In Peace And Watch Season 40 In The Clouds
So sorry for your loss. May your grandmother rest in peace.
The Cook Islands guitar during Yul’s shots and the Guatemala flute going with Danni. Holy shit this is fantastic.
This is better than the official S40 intro.
And Survivor complains that it is expensive to create an Intro?
They could've used this one as Intro instead and paid its creator. Stupid.
@@KneeJerkReactor they could do whatever they want, we'll still watch..
@Stevie speak for yourself bro lol

I didn't know it was even fan-made!
oh shut up, be grateful
@@sillygoose635 Grateful for what?
I am grateful for the talented fans out there willing to do what CBS should already be doing.
I will forever believe that this is the official unaired intro to “Survivor: Winners At War” 💥🥊👊🏽💪🏼
Love the little subtle features of the photo sections of each player: Their starting tribe name of their winning season with the logo of their winning season.
Sell this to CBS so they can make it the real intro. Better yet, CBS should hire you to make all their Survivor intros. Very well done.
Agreed
This is the best fan made intro I’ve ever seen, from the music remix to the editing of the contestant shots. Amazing job.
I LOVE IT! I love how you honor the winners by putting a photo cut scene like the old times. This one have to be the official. Thank you for making this great fan made intro, sir
I really loved the combination of different voices, languages and symphonic styles into one huge masterpiece. 😍

@@shorterchip Best intro ever
this is so good! my favorite out of all the waw fanmade intro so far. has the old school intro touch in it too w the pictures
This intro represents this season to a tee, Chaotic, in the most beautiful way. Just Amazing, even after the season ended, this is still a treat to look at.
Way better than the official intro. The details are so intricate (for example the tribe names or insignias in the still shots). Fantastic job!
So far I've watched this 5 times straight. Amazing fan made intro!!!
This is brilliant! Now I need to figure out how to splice it into the actual show and rewatch the entire season. Damn you, Probst!
This may be the best custom intro I've ever seen
This is the best fan made intro I have ever seen great job man!
CAN'T WAIT FOR KIM AND PARVATI. THEY ARE MY SURVIVOR QUEENS.
I would love if Kim was voted out early. Maybe 2nd boot. Then at episode 3 she quits Edge of Extinction.
I want Sarah to be voted out pre merge
Sad to say parvati will go home immediately
Tony all the way
Kim won an easy season. She played with idiots, still one of my favourite winners :D
This is awesome! I like how in the shots of the photos that they have the logo of the season in which they won and the name of their starting tribe around the photo. Nice work!
Omg I did not even notice that. That made it more thrilling & was the cherry on top to why this intro is stellar. Please get connections into the Survivor community & make their intros‼️😭
How creatively this is done is crazy. The pictures, the engraved logos and tribe names... The shots... It's all so PERFECT!
By far the best fan made intro I’ve seen. Nice job!
Wow! Great mix of epic seasons . I believe I hear parts of China, Guatemala, cook Islands, exile island, Vanuatu, Fiji and Palau. Maybe there is more.
Thank you so much for making this. I'm literally going to play this before watching each new episode.
i love what you did with the portraits esp the burning and water dripping effects, which in hindsight for some of them ended up almost prophetic (esp sarah's burning!!!!!!)
WOW . I’m legit shook how good this is!!!
I also love how you mash up all opening theme songs in this video
Love the combo of old school and new school intro styles! And the fact that you lined so many shots up with the percussive beat of the song is beautiful. Amazing job
Well if they haven’t made one yet there is no reason to.... this is incredible. The detail in the photo shots with the logos and team names from their original seasons is an amazing touch.

This is the most incredible fan edit I’ve seen. Bravo friend!
This is done very well man! I even thought this is the official intro TBH!
Starting with Sandra and ending with Parvati. A masterpiece! Ik I’m late but just had to appreciate that
this is legit super cool & criminally underrated
I seriously though it was the legit intro.. kudos to the maker..
Send this to Jeff and CBS now!!!! Like that they can use it!!!! This is amazing!!!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I HAD 0 IDEA THIS WAS A FAN EDIT UNTIL I SCROLLED DOWN TO THE COMMENTS. WAS ABOUT TO ASK WHERE YOU GOT IT FROM. WOOOOWW.
holy shit that transition from ethan's polaroid to his second action shot was fucking awesome
Dude I thought it was da real intro,u really did season 40 right,IM SOOOOOO READY FOR DIS
I do enjoy the portraits being part of the intro. Hoping they will do those again. It is so much more creative and nostalgic than having two live action shots.
This is legit the best one!!!
Amazing job, honestly 10 out of 10. They really should hire whoever created this to be a part of their editing team. Great job my guy. :)
This is amazing. Well edited and just perfect!
BEST INTRO EVER !!!
ESPECIALLY WITH ETHAN'S PART. SEEMS LIKE IT'S SUCH A HINT. LOL
This is the best one yet!!!! Very retro love it!
Jeff Probst if u ever read this ... whoever made this intro killed the non existent one u gave us for this season
My eyes are fucking satisfied. I am fucking back after another day to fucking comment how fucking thrilled to watch this fucking badass intro. I am fucking appalled at the fucking dedication & fucking passion put into this fucking intro. Survivor seriously couldn’t fucking wait until after season 40 to fucking stop producing intros. Anyways, this intro is a fucking masterpiece & I am fucking addicted 💎‼️🤭
Love the aesthetic sooo much and great remix of previous ones. 😄😄😄😄
Dude. This is literally 100x better than the real one lol...
0:44 when ethans picture slipped it was so epic
I hope Survivor producers see this and use it for the show because it's really that good!
The music for this gave me actual chills! IM SO FREAKIN EXCITED!!
Best intro I have seen! Great job
THIS IS AMAZING I LOVE YOU
This is awesome man, if they use your intro I won’t be disappointed.
Just a few more days guys!!! Cant wait!!
Thought this was the real one lol this is so dope! Don’t know why they don’t make these intros anymore but this season still gonna be lit
This is insanely good
Great Edit! this looks really authentic!
Omg I thought this was the real thing, Good Job! It looks amazing!
Wow this is amazing! Better then the official intro
AMAZING! I like Ethan n Adam shots trick. Welldone!
Literal chills!
You fooled me. This looked pretty legit. If there's no intro this season I'll be tempted to just watch this before the episode starts.
I just noticed that in the box the photos are shown, the season logo of the winner is there and his/her tribe name
This is way better than the official intro they released yesterday.
this is better than the official intro
Favorite shots: Yul’s facial really fits the theme of the season‼️
The intro is lit, didn't know it wasn't but thanks to the comment section
Love this! Great job!!!
WILL I MISS U
This is soooooo goooood👍
This is SO GOOD!
Since there will probably NOT be a live studio audience. They should make time to add an intro to the finally!!!
I genuinely thought this was the official trailer because of how much footage you got BEFORE THE SHOW aired? Like woah, I never realized you can make a whole trailer through promotions and stuff, very very very well done!
This is better than what we would have gotten
Awesome job!

I’m officially making this the official intro if they don’t have one.
Yeah this will become headcanon
buffusa.com put this intro on their website so its like semi-canon lol
This is amazing!
Really well done 👍
I love it!!!
I’m so excited
the 14 dislikes are from winners that werent in winners at war
tommy disliked this video
he really wanted to vote out sandra
now he will never get the chance
shes retiring
he might never return
@@xander2cat this kinda didn’t age well
Dalton Ross just tweeted out not too long ago and confirm if there will be no opening credits again. 😭😭😭 I can live with it if they don't put it on the show but for them to completely not show it at all even online is ridiculous. #SavetheSurvivorIntro
I feel like the little pictures should be each of them being crowned the winner,, this was absolutely great tho!!
I love how a lot of them came from Heroes vs. Villains.
When Jeff Probst snuffed the torch....
I felt that.
So cool!!!!
i just love survivor china intro music. one of my faves in the entire series. it's just sad that russ landau is no longer working with them.
Holy shit this is amazing!!!!!
4th season for Parvati! 👏
Cook Islands + Micronesia: Fans vs. Favorites + Heroes vs. Villains + Winners at War 🏆
QUICK QUESTION: how did you make Ethan’s portrait dangle and fall off like that? Clever‼️ and how did you make/produce/incorporate all these still shots? What software did you use?
buffusa.com actually has this intro on their website which is pretty awesome
#teamBostonRob -that's all I can say!Best player ever!!!Go Rob!!!💪
The Best One
