Concept and creative process
Opening titles for a period drama series for children by Helen Cresswell, after the novels by E. Nesbit. The title sequence introduced the children in the story being photographed and seen in the viewfinder of an old plate camera, and then reflected in a triple dressing table mirror. The remaining shots carry the title and writers’ credits over a fairground carousel,
again reflected in a close-up of the mirror, composited in a digital edit.
