Talking Pictures (1988)

Concept and creative process

Titles for ‘Talking Pictures’, a series written and presented by Barry Norman, which told the story of Hollywood from the coming of sound to the present day. The title sequence designed by Dick Bailey was a 3D computer-generated animated model of a movie theatre, based on the architecture of the golden era of cinema design, with the show’s title displayed like a neon sign on top of the building over the main entrance.
