Tinsel Town (2001)

Concept and creative process

Titles for ‘Tinsel Town’, a drama set in Glasgows's high-octane club scene about the lifestyles of the people who go to the ‘Tinsel Town’ nightclub. The title sequence for the second series concentrated on the now established nightclub regulars and their relationships, in a montage of live action portraits layered over a background of torrential rain. The images appeared in square vignettes, digitally layered over one another and receding into the background, which was composed of more torrential rainfall composited over rapidly interchanging groups of other ‘Tinsel Town’ devotees. One of the cast was singled out each week and featured alongside the main title.
