You Should Be So Lucky! (1987)

Concept and creative process

Titles for ‘You Should Be So Lucky!’, a children's programme involving a quiz/board game and a talent contest, with pupils from well-established stage and drama schools competing for the chance to entertain. The board game was animated and filmed on a rostrum camera. The title caption, with an animated frame of lights surrounding the logo, was filmed separately. The logo was hand animated to move aside and reveal the chromakey blue colour beneath, which enabled a smooth electronic transition to the studio via a zoom in on the artwork.
