Dombey and Son (1983)

Concept and creative process

Opening titles for a drama serial based on the book 'Dombey and Son' by Charles Dickens. For these titles the designer’s role was to choose the type font and layout the type over the background still shots, to film the title artwork on the rostrum camera and to deliver a transmission colour print to the production to play in from telecine during video recording of the serial in the studio.
