Ripper Street

The credits for Ripper Street are absolutely fantastic and they really remind me of the Se7en title sequence.
I've always thought that BBC programmes have the best credits and this one is no exception!

I can't really describe it but here it is:



There's a few silhouettes in there and the text kind of newspapery..? I can't find actual words to describe it to be honest, but they're fantastic and really fit with the nature of the programme!

Regarding our own credits, I'm still a bit dubious about the text. For the sake of getting it in, we just picked a random text and decided to come back to it later, but when Athena and Lucy changed the film into black and white, they picked a different text. Admittedly, it's A LOT better but I'm still waiting to find a text and get that "OMG YES THIS IS THE FONT I WANT IN OUR FILM" epiphany. Maybe I never will and the font will just have to be something we agree to disagree on but I am still searching.. And so far I am unsuccessful.

Maybe the BBC will let us use their font for Ripper Street? :D
