On the Waterfront (1988)

Concept and creative process

Titles for a children's light entertainment magazine programme presented by Andrew O'Connor, Bernie Nolan, Kate Copstick and Terry Randall. The sequence reflected the madcap nature of the show itself in the multi-layered objects, and showcased the presenters in a series of drawn portraits superimposed over colourful international signal flags. The show’s title was superimposed in the edit over the flag for ‘O’ or ‘Man Overboard’, and the animated seagull was a leitmotif throughout the sequence.
