Mrs. Henderson Presents
I went with a few friends to see Mrs. Henderson Presents on Friday night. While I thought the whole movie was wonderfully done, I sat mouth agape at the introductory credit sequence. I loved the art deco style, art nouveau influence and CGI. The type choices,the illustration style, the movement... all brilliant. It's so refreshing to see design work with more classical styling turned into something modern. I think we have a lot to learn from artists of the past. I get a little jaded at the modern for modern's sake I see around me in design mags and advertising.
If you have time I *highly* recommend checking out the whole title sequence as created by The Foreign Office. Their website has several other really interesting projects of note as well.
