Forget the Film, Watch the Titles DVD

Posted 14th October 2011 by Andrew

On Wednesday I posted ‘Video | What is Motion Design?’ which features a brilliant video made by Motion Plus Design which gives a great overview of what motion design is.

In this post I wanted to follow on with this theme and talk about an excellent looking DVD called ‘Forget the Film, Watch the Titles’ made by Submarine Channel.

Here’s the trailer for the DVD below: (and with Christmas only 71 days away I may soon start dropping hints about this DVD!)

2 DVDs, 38 title sequences, 9 brand-new short documentaries on title designers, 38-page booklet.

For the very first time in the history of cinema, a collection of the best contemporary title sequences is available on DVD. With a special focus on, but not limited to European film title sequences, the DVD also includes amazing titles made for TV, games and motion graphic events.

The second DVD, featuring 9 short documentaries on leading title designers, offers an insightful, behind-the-scenes look into the fascinating world of title design.

Featuring almost 3 hours of exciting content and representing the best international motion design talent, this 2 DVD-set is essential viewing for movie lovers, and an indispensable source of inspiration for designers, filmmakers and animators.

The DVD is handsomely produced and packaged, and comes with a 36-page booklet detailing the selected title sequences.

Subtitles in French, Dutch, Spanish are included.
