University Challenge (1994)

Concept and creative process

Titles for an academic quiz show where teams of students from UK universities answer questions on all manner of subjects put to them by Jeremy Paxman. The title sequence features Auguste Rodin’s sculpture ‘The Thinker’ surrounded by many other icons representing the fields of knowledge about which the university students could be asked questions. The images were edited, animated and composited in post-production in a multilayered digital edit.
