Client Retort

Brief Evolve the original titles for the resurrected comedy and include Lesley Joseph’s character in the sequence for the first time.

How it was done The concept, which was to change the style of the images used in the previous titles to match the passing years, started with the ladies seen as babies on an old black-and-white photo, which changes to Polaroid images, a home movie shot on Super 8mm, mounted slide, contact sheet, clip frame, SLR viewfinder, VHS recording, a digital camera and, for the final shot, a digital display of a smartphone.

Mark Fairless used Cinema 4D and After Effects with Trapcode Particular for the 3D animation and compositing.

Design and art direction was by Russell Hilliard.
