Nina Saxon Design, a leading design production studios, has completed main title designs sequences for four upcoming and new feature films and a new television series.
Nina Saxon Design has completed main titles for Martin Scorseses THE DEPARTED, Lasse Hallstroms THE HOAX, Barry Levinsons MAN OF THE YEAR and DECK THE HALLS starring Danny DeVito and Matthew Broderick, for director John Whitesell. On the television side, the company has also produced the main title sequence for the new ABC TV series, NOTES FROM THE UNDERBELLY, for creator Stacy Traub and exec producer Barry Sonnenfeld.
Regarding the main title for THE DEPARTED, president Nina Saxon said, For this assignment, we designed white type over black, which is not so simple. Many people think white on black requires little or no thought, but the title still needed to reflect Martin Scorseses vision and feel integrated into the film, as it is the first image the audience sees.
Regarding MAN OF THE YEAR, Barry Levinson said, Nina Saxon was excellent at working within our always pressing time limits, always accommodated our feedback, and we were pleased with the end results.
Saxon added, We are really fortunate to have had the chance to work with such major filmmakers and producers just recently. I believe that a main title sequence should always feel organic to any movie or television program, as though it was actually written into the script. Even though a main title may be very elaborate and wonderful on its own merit, I dont think it can be considered a success if its disconnected from the rest of the picture or program. That is our specialty and the reason why we have succeeded in this niche field.
