Dangerous Parking

14 april: UK design studio Momoco created the main-on-end titles for Dangerous Parking, the brand-new film by Peter Howitt that will be released in the UK in June, but we can already show you the titles. Designer Nic Benns explains how he made them: "I created a sequence where the type drifts through a distorted world by simply shooting the credits through bottles of gin, whisky and an ashtray. All the elements are in-camera and any imperfections left where they are...". See it here.
Other title sequences designed by Momoco:
Alien Vs. Predator
Into The Blue
Laws of Attraction
Hard Candy
30 Days of Night
