Wordsalad create title sequence for Peter AcKroyd’s London

The title sequence for the TV adaptation of Peter Ackroyd’s London has been created by Wordsalad. Designed to tie in with the programme’s historical leanings, the titles are carved from wood then cast out of aluminium to produce varied weights and uneven surfaces. ‘We filmed the metal casting process and this formation of the type mark represents the birth of the city,’ says Wordsalad founder Nick Robertson. The programme is being broadcast on BBC2 until 21 May.
