The Intro Film is the opening visual from The Chromatica Ball by Nick Knight and Marcin Pospiech.
Background
Soon after the stadium lights go out and the Brutalist backdrop fades, the show starts with two flashes of light. Those lights eventually transforms to several rays of light representing Time and Space forming a black sphere that eventually turns red (which probably symbolizes the birth of Chromatica) created by visual artist Marcin Pospiech. Following the conception of the sphere, it starts to project smoke as the camera starts to zoom inside of it, showing a shadowy Geometric silhouette standing on top of a black piano mutating into different shapes with two video cameras droning around it shot by Nick Knight. The next scene shows a camera's lens. The moment it goes deeper inside the lens, it shows another silhouette in a gown. Later on, the silhouette reveals itself to be Lady Gaga in a state of manic torture and anguish. Gaga takes off her mask and kisses it. The final scene shows her shedding a tear, which quickly transitions to black followed by a countdown in a Bauhaus font, signaling the prelude of the show.
