Mrs. Henderson Presents (2005) Pt. 1 - Opening credits design

I'm going to break down my feature on Mrs. Henderson Presents into two separate posts. I am too much in love with the artwork presented in the opening credits to not share them with you. The entire sequence is animated and it's really well done. I couldn't find out who was responsible for it though, even after scanning the full cast & crew list several times over, so if any of you know, please let me know. I'll do a bigger post with screencaps from the movie itself later this week. Update: Foreign Office Design was responsible for the animation sequence. Check out their other projects. Really great work.

By the way, the images are arranged in the same order as they appear during the opening credits.

I loved these as well -- but I am convinced that they are not of the time!

really cool title sequence! as for credits, there's a blog called "art of the title sequence" (http://www.artofthetitle.com/)that might have that information. if not, the blog's author might know. they have some really cool interviews on that blog.

http://www.foreignoffice.com/ created the sequence.

Hungry in LA - You are awesome. Thanks so much. I will update the info in the post.
