Rita Hayworth - Staying Alive



This just put a massive smile on my face. What a woman. Totally into her work in a happy and spontaneous way. I never saw that before.

Six Feet Under



Opening sequences or idents for TV programs are a splendid way to understand how to build emotion and feeling into short film clips as indeed we often try in the world of commercials. They are a great example of 'its not what you say but how you say it'.

Idents.tv is a nifty resource if you want to get up to speed on typography, design, music, direction, DOP, special effects and the use of storyboards. Its fascinating to see how the show Six Feet Under created theirs over here.
